To Cross the Valley

There are consequences for sin.

And when Mattie Johnson became pregnant, she got slapped with them all. Her family abandoned her, her love skipped town, and she lost her precious daughter. With only her found family and her best friend's ex to lean on, she did her best to forge on.

Two and a half years later, her plans are simple. Survive the second birthday that would never be celebrated and not lose her friends for leaning on them too much. What isn't in her plans? Wyatt waltzing back into town expecting to meet his child.

Believing the lies that rodeo cowboys were good for nothin', Wyatt Avery set out to become a better man for the only woman he'd ever love and his unborn child. Able now to care for the family he left behind, he returns to Osage County. But what he finds is a tiny grave and a broken woman.

Love may be able to come home, but can Mattie trust Wyatt's love to not abandon her again? Can she find the courage to cross the valley between them?

Nestled in the heart of Osage County, Oklahoma is the small town of Pawhuska, surrounded by a paradise of rolling hills and the Tallgrass Prairie. If you enjoy clean, first-love romance, then this small-town, second-chance romance is for you.
