Publisher Description
Charlize 'Charlie' McCloud, young widow and mother, is seemingly content with her secluded life on a sprawling Texas ranch. Her moonlit horseback rides provide the perfect dreamscape to obsessively reminisce about her college sweetheart—her first and final love—Cash McCloud.
When intern Hunter Bowie arrives on her ranch to work for the summer, his engaging persona threatens Charlie's treasured reliving. Her interest in moving on as departed as her late husband, Hunter's youthful exuberance and guitar revives dreams she once laid to rest.
Hunter's presence stirs up everyone around the ranch, including her late husband's older brother, Cage McCloud. A near replica of Cash, Cage's very existence is a painstaking reminder of how much she has lost.
Unintentionally revealing the truth about Cash's death, Cage sets off a firestorm of emotions, ultimately propelling Charlie to face her future—hopefully one that includes him.

Saddle Up For A Great Read
Paths, some cross, some never do. Do we control which ones we take or is it in the hands of fate?
Hunter Bowie heads into Texas Hill Country to begin a work/study program with a Charlie McCloud. After being bested by a runaway mare and a staple gun, Hunter settles into life on the ranch. Not having a real plan for the summer, Hunter enjoys being part of the ranch ‘family’.
As Hunter and Charlie (aka Charlize) bond over their love of music, they find themselves on converging and diverging paths. Will Charlie move past the loss of her first love, late husband Cash, and allow her heart to come alive again?
Think of a young horse, being broken-in, learning to trust a new rider. It falls on the trainer to teach the horse the skills needed to help on the ranch, and to trust those people around him.
As the twists and turns play out along the dirt paths, you’ll feel Charlie’s heartache and wonder if she’ll rein in her heart or gallop toward her future.
Charlie's journey is one rough ride. You'll find yourself wanting the best for her, but unsure who will be the right stablemate. ;)
