One of the best books I've all year! Ruth Logan Herne is a new author for me but I can assure you this won't be the last of her books I'll read! In fact when I realized this was book 2 of her Double S Ranch Series I quickly went out and got book 1 Back in the Saddle. To say I can't wait for book 3 to come out is an understatement. This book (series) has lots of family drama! With three strapping cowboy brothers each dealing with tremendous loss from their childhood and as grown men, there is a lot to deal with. This story offers readers a taste of processing grief, forgiving the unforgivable, restoration of faith, family and God's surprising ways of helping us become whole again. Filled with a cast of intriguing and secret holding characters this is a book that is hard to put down. Elsa, the counselor who needs healing herself from past trauma finds amazing peace as she reaches out to a hurting child. A little girl abandoned by her mother and angry at the world finds wonder in the birth of puppies. A man learning to trust his instincts and build a safe haven for his daughters find forgiveness a balm he didn't expect. A grandfather who put his sons last commits to putting them first now as he faces his own time running out. The small town flavor mixed with the big ranch living provide a wonderful blend of homey belonging that makes one wish they could live there among the Stafford clan and friends.
I received this book free from the publishers and was not required to write a positive review.
