Book Overview

After fighting her way through a bitter and hurtful past, Mercedes Johnson has painstakingly carved out a life of quiet contentment on a Wyoming farm with her husband, Wayne, and their three sons. Together she and Wayne have survived the worst trials a couple can face, and their relationship has grown as solid and lasting as the farmland beneath their feet. If their relationship is not everything Mercedes might have hoped for, it is enough.

All that changed when the birth father of Mercedes' oldest child returns to Riverton. Dr. Brandon Rhodes, a renowned heart surgeon, has plans for the son he has never met. Resentful at the secret Mercedes has kept for thirteen years, he threatens the carefully balanced life she and Wayne have created. Just how far is he willing to go to gain what he feels is rightfully his?

As Mercedes uncovers the truth of Brandon's intentions regarding their son and the lies surrounding the past, she is torn between what is and what might have been. One choice, one decision, has led her to this place. How can she live with the consequences?

Book review

This novel kept my interest. I had a hard time putting it down. Great plot and interesting characters. I would recommend this book to my friends. Rachel Ann Nunes is a great author.

Excellent Read

This is a great book, dealing with such issues as facing the truth, love,forgiveness, and making things right. The characters were brilliantly created, and it shows that it is never too late to right wrongs and to appreciate all of the blessings we have been given.

One of her Best!

I love all of Rachel's books. While at a booksigning, she said she thought this one was one of her best works. I was skeptical, but I have to agree. Great characters, as usual, and with her unique human touch to them that I love. Powerful writing! I didn't want to put it down once I started, and couldn't toward the end (who needs sleep?). It is the second in this new "series", but it can be read as a "stand alone" without missing anything. I also recommend the first one, Flying Home, and just about any of her others.Flying Home Winter Fire

Definitely worth reading!!

Great book! Rachel has written real characters dealing with real problems in very human ways. This is her best book yet!
