All her life Sophie Meecham was told that modesty was a
virtue and sex before marriage was wrong, so when she
learns that her step–mother slept her way up the
corporate ladder before marrying her father, Sophie's so
angry and disillusioned she shows up unexpectedly at the
Dancing Moon Ranch to vent to her lifelong friend, Rick
Hansen. Rick too is disillusioned. Sophie's changed from
the woman he'd grown to love over the years, and even
envisioned marrying. In fact, she's so mad, she rebels
against everything that's been instilled in her, even tries
to have sex with Rick. But he wants no part of it. Although
he doesn't want the woman Sophie is now, he doesn't want
any other man to have her either. But soon after, a
life–altering incident has Sophie looking at Rick,
her buddy, in a whole new light. It's also clear, the man
she's falling in love with has fallen out of love with her,
and it will be an uphill battle to prove to Rick she's
still the woman he'd always thought her to be.
BOOK 2: BECOMING JESSE'S FATHER
When Adam Hansen discovers his ex–fiancée, along
with a son he never knew he had, hiding in an isolated
cabin on his ranch, in the middle of winter, and learns
she's being hunted down by her former husband, an
ex–green beret, Adam vows to protect them, even
though he has no intention of getting involved with Emily
again. He's also trying to gain the love and trust of a
three–year–old boy who fears and mistrusts men.
But while he's safeguarding Emily and Jesse, Adam learns
that Emily's wanted in a non–custodial kidnapping to
protect Jesse from a dangerous step–father, who's
also Jesse's legal father, since Emily gave birth to Jesse
while married to him. Still, Adam intends to protect them
at all cost, even if it means going against his family, and
the law, and taking Emily and Jesse into the mountains and
beyond, if that's the only way to keep them safe.
BOOK 3: BITTERSWEET RETURN
In the jungles of Central America, archaeologists Marc
Hansen and Kit Korban are winding up a project. Marc walked
away from his family after learning that all his life had
been a lie. He hasn't seen them in four years and doesn't
plan to return any time soon. Although Kit sees potential
in the man, and his presence makes her pulse race, he's
carrying far too much personal baggage, so a relationship
with him is out. However, when she learns there's an
unexcavated Indian mound on his family's ranch, Kit talks
Marc into taking her there. But whereas Marc's mother
welcomes him with open arms, it's not the same with his
father. Marc walked away from a mother who'd loved him
unconditionally, and Jack Hansen isn't ready to put that
behind. But as Kit begins to peel back the layers of a very
complicated man, she also finds in Marc a man worth loving.
The problem is convincing Marc that, just because he's no
blood kin, he's not the outsider in the family he's always
believed himself to be.
