Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2005

When tragedy loomed near, April Maxwell left life in a big city and came home to tend to her father. Her faith and belief in happy endings all but destroyed, April threw herself into working her father's ranch. But as she struggled with this new life, she found herself headlong in a romantic attachment she never thought possible.

Rancher Reed Garrison resented April's leaving Texas so long ago, but he loved her still. Now Reed wanted her to succeed, to recapture her joy and love of God. He hoped the tender feelings between them would grow—and that this time, April would be willing to put down roots...with him.

I enjoyed reading this book because it was simple and wonderful. The plot is well written and the charecters seem real. April faces the same kinds of issues that all woman do, like should she risk getting hurt by the man she loves? I am looking forward to reading the rest of this series.

Fantastic book!!! This gives us hope that when we let love slip away, it is not
too late for love to have a second chance. I found myself captivated by their story. I plan to read the other two books in this series.
