With cellphones and laptops always on the go, the famous
film producer, David McKay, was a man used to getting the
results he wanted in negotiations. Yet, despite his best
entreaties, he was not able to change his 73 year old
Gran's mind about going on horseback to the happy spot
Geneva had spent on her honeymoon with her beloved Herbert,
and now wanted to go to spread his ashes there. As if that
wasn't hard enough to swallow, the person taking her on the
trailride was none other than his teenage sweetheart,
Adriana D'Angelo who he lad left ten years ago to pursue
his dreams of making films. Addy with her dancer's body
and tangle of beautiful black curls looked as lovely as
ever despite her annoyance at seeing him.
Determined to keep his only family member safe, David makes
an uncharacteristic decision and says that if she won't
change her mind about going, he would go with them. For her
part, Addy is
thrown by how she will handle things for two whole weeks
with David along. Just seeing him sent her heart spinning,
yet, she could never let him hurt her again after he left
her in such a desolate situation. Meanwhile, Geneva and Sam
D'Angelo have plans of their own that don't include Rosa,
Sam's wife.
In this final book of the "Heart of the Rockies" series,
Ann Evans has pulled together a nice twist on the "meeting
up with teenage love again" theme by having the secondary
characters involved in some sub-plots of their own and
highlighting their love story. Set in Broken Yoke,
Colorado, this is an intriguing read on its own or for fans
of the whole series. You'll be certain to enjoy the
interplay and badgering as David and Addy send sparks
flying at each other. You will also delight in the
development of their growth as characters as they explore
their feelings for each other as well as their
relationships to other family members. Enjoy!
David McKay had put Broken Yoke behind him ten years ago
when he'd left to pursue his career—but that changed when
he promised to help his frail grandmother fulfill her
husband's wish to have his ashes scattered over a
mountaintop.
He'd expected the two-week pilgrimage to be tough, but it
got even tougher when the trail guide turned out to be
Adriana D'Angelo, the high school sweetheart he'd
sacrificed to his ambition and still couldn't forget.
Of course, neither he nor Addy ever dreamed that two
people who were no longer in love would enjoy the strange
twist of "fate" that brought them together again….
