Description
After losing half his cattle herd in the Great Blizzard of 1886, rancher
Konrad Windsor needs a way to keep his cattle contained. Tomboy Anora
Huxley, age 24, daughter and granddaughter of sheep ranchers, trains the
Australian Shepherds and Kelpies that run the family’s herd. What
Konrad doesn’t need is for Anora to tell him how to run his operation
while in the middle of the mercantile.
At later encounters, the
pair learns they have common interests and draw closer. A threat to
Anora’s ranch is overheard, and Konrad rides out with a warning, and a
crew, to offer protection. Through the tense situation, they share
confidences. Although torn about honoring her grandfather’s dislike of
cattlemen and listening to her own heart about Konrad’s request to court
her, Anora’s heart is swayed by Konrad’s grand gesture at the Christmas
Eve church bazaar and is compelled to obey his silent signals.

Can a Cattle rancher whose herd was decimated by the great blizzard of 1888 and a granddaughter of a sheep rancher find common ground? Konrad and Anora work through their differences to find a common path in this tale of the old west. Enjoyed the setting and character's tales. Good book to snuggle up with on a cool night and get away to another time.
Ebook from netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.

What a thoroughly satisfying story! You get so wrapped up and invested in each and every character, that the ending comes way too soon. The love that surrounds this small town life is so pleasurable that it will do your heart good to read this. Country life may seem simple but it still has its own share of drama and excitement. The experiences of the townsfolk will be your experiences too. A foray into a sweet, developing love. Nothing like it.
Linda Carroll-Bradd is now one of my favorite authors!
