Book Overview
But neither did his mule.
After a traumatic ordeal shatters her confidence, Bertie Hawkins is desperate for a change. A summer job at Nash's Folly offers a chance to start over. What she expects is hard work and quiet days. What she finds is unexpected peace-and a mysterious ranch hand who makes her believe she might once more know joy.
Riley Walsh came west to forget. Haunted by memories he can't escape, he pours everything he has into rebuilding a run-down farm and keeping his distance from anything that might matter. Falling for the bright, resilient young woman who brings warmth back into his world and heart was never part of his plan.
But Riley isn't the only one captivated by Bertie. His mischievous mule and an eager neighbor boy seem just as taken with her, testing his patience-and stirring a jealousy he never anticipated.
