Journey to the small-town of Parable, Montana where sometimes love shows up when you least expect it from No.1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller!
The illegitimate son of a wealthy rancher, Sheriff Slade Barlow grew up in a trailer hitched to the hair salon his mother runs. He was never acknowledged by his father–until now. Suddenly, Slade has inherited half of Whisper Creek Ranch – one of the most prosperous in Parable, Montana. That doesn't sit well with his half–brother, Hutch, who grew up with all the rights of a Carmody. Including the affections of Joslyn Kirk, the homecoming queen, rodeo queen and beauty queen whom Slade has never forgotten.
But Joslyn is barely holding her head up these days as she works to pay back everyone her crooked stepfather cheated. With a town to protect – plus a rebellious teenage stepdaughter – Slade has his hands full. But someone has to convince Joslyn that she's responsible only for her own actions. Such as her effect on this lawman's guarded heart.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Perennial bestseller Miller takes a break from her popular McKettricks of Texas books and kicks off a new western series with this engaging contemporary western. Slade Barlow is the sheriff of Parable, Mont., and the illegitimate son of a wealthy rancher who never acknowledged him. Slade and his half-brother, Hutch Carmody, are shocked when their father's will leaves each of them half of the Whisper Creek Ranch. Software designer Joslyn Kirk, Hutch's ex-girlfriend, has sold her company and come back to town to make amends for her stepfather, who swindled many Parable citizens. Slade and Joslyn keep running into each other, and an intense attraction soon ignites between them. The romance is a bit thin, but Miller's down-home, easy-to-read style keeps the plot moving, and she includes all the elements her fans have come to expect, including likable characters, picturesque descriptions, and some very sweet pets.
