When Meg Cole's father dies unexpectedly, she's forced to return
home to Texas and to Whispering Creek Ranch to take up the reins of
his empire. The last thing she has the patience or the sanity to
deal with? Her father's Thoroughbred racehorse farm. She gives its
manager, Bo Porter, six months to close the place down.
Bo knows he ought to resent the woman who's determined to take from
him the only job he ever wanted. But instead of anger, Meg evokes
within him a profound desire to protect. The more time he spends
with her, the more he longs to overcome every obstacle that
separates them and earn her love.
Just when Meg realizes she can no longer deny the depth of her
feelings for Bo, their fragile bond is broken by a force from Meg's
past. Can their relationship--and their belief that God can work
through every circumstance--survive?
