The final installment revolving around the three Creed cowboys is about Brody Creed who returned home to Lonesome Bend, Colorado after an extended absence and separation from his family and twin brother Connor. Both Connor and Brody were raised by their aunt and uncle having lost their parents when they were just infants. The twins were twin-close up until they let a woman get between them. But that didn't really explain the why of Brody's disappearance for so many years and few family members knew the entire story. He had actually returned home once before, about ten years earlier, hoping to put his wanderlust to rest and make amends with his brother. He even started up a relationship with a lovely newcomer to the area, Carolyn, which promised to be the stuff futures are made of. But the past caught up with Brody -- a young lady gave him a literal wake-up call informing him of her pregnancy and he felt obligated to do right by her and their unborn child. So he left Carolyn a note saying he was sorry and goodbye, and he hit the road once again. Carolyn was crushed even though she considered herself less than worthy of a fairy tale ending. Nonetheless, she made the decision to stay put in a place that had accepted her; where she was beginning to belong, finally a home. Brody and Carolyn came from two distinctly different places. Brody had enjoyed the love and security one comes to expect from a large loving family -- part of the Creed's legacy. The fact that he would turn his back on this rich heritage was impossible for Carolyn to fathom. When he returned this last time, Carolyn had to face facts that to protect her heart she needed to erect a wall around her emotions where Brody was concerned. She was rather confident she could pull this off considering her history of being left behind, first by her mother then by a long line of foster homes. What she neglected to consider was the Creed tenacity and appeal. Brody and Carolyn may have started in opposing corners but the battle of hearts was just starting. The current between the two practically sizzled. May not have been a match made in heaven but it could still be a heck of a love match. Having met Carolyn in the prior Creed stories, we were already captivated with this unassuming young woman who went out of her way to avoid any and all contacted with Brody Creed -- to an almost comical degree -- but had built a solid relationship with many Creed family members. She was a bit of mystery to all, and Miller did an excellent job whetting our appetite for more of Carolyn's story. In true Miller fashion she did not disappoint.

SUMMARY

Rough-and-tumble rodeo cowboy Brody Creed likes life on the move. Until a chance encounter with his long-estranged twin brother brings him “home,” for the first time in years. Suddenly Brody is in Creed territory—a rootless bad boy among family with deep ties to the land and each other. He’s half-ready to bolt when he meets a copper-haired beauty more restless than he is. Carolyn Simmons is living a temporary life in Lonesome Bend, waiting to light out for the glamour of a metropolis. Then she falls for gorgeous Brody Creed, the opposite of everything she wants. But taming his wild heart might just become everything they both need…
