In this heartfelt and poignant follow-up to Earlene Fowlerβs national bestseller, The Saddlemakerβs Wife, Ruby McGavin returns to the small town of Cardinal, California, where a year ago she brought her husbandβs ashes back to his familyβs ranch, and discovered safety, peace, and a love...
Ruby never thought sheβd return to Cardinal, but sheβs hoping the place and people who gave her so much can give her brother Nashβwhoβs been drowning in drink in Nashvilleβthe fresh start he so desperately needs.
Saddlemaker Lucas McGavin is thrilled that Ruby has come back. He hasnβt given up on his love for her, despite the awkward fact that she is his brotherβs widow, and heβs well aware that this may be his last chance to win Rubyβs heart.
When Nash starts drinking again and ends up in a devastating accident, Ruby decides she must find her estranged mother to help with an intervention. Two states away, Etta Walker harbors a horrible secret that keeps her from reconnecting with the children she deserted so many years ago.
As they struggle with the present and confront the past, Ruby, Lucas, and Etta learn the power of forgivenessβ¦and reach for a new future filled with hope, grace, and love
