He left a soldier...and returned a cowboy.
Can Rocky Mountain Ranch make him a husband?
After a medical discharge from the marines, all Devlin Langford wants is peace and solitude on his Montana ranch. Instead, he finds his childhood nemesis, Chloe Kenner, in his rental cabin. The cheerful cookbook writer can’t forget how she once pestered him—and crushed on him. Is her sunny smile just what he needs to begin healing?

She was impossible to forget.
Looking at those big blue eyes that were staring at him with recognition and horror, he felt memories slam into him.
He hadn’t seen her since he was sixteen, when she’d been his persistent shadow. The bane of his existence. “Chloe? What are you doing here?”
She blushed. “I—I thought you were in the military. Your family said—”
Apparently her memories of him weren’t that happy, either. “I’ve been back a couple days. They were expecting me.”
“I...um...I’m renting a cabin here on the ranch. For a few months.”
He gaped. “Months?” he repeated, hoping he’d heard her wrong.
She nodded as she grabbed her suitcase. “Well...I guess I’d better get settled.”
Of all people to show up while he was trying to regain a sense of peace and figure out how to start his life over!
As he watched her enter the cabin, he couldn’t help feeling as if he were wavering on a fragile precipice with unknown, dangerous water below. Blue water the same color as Chloe’s eyes.
Thank you so much for joining me in Montana ranch country.
High Country Homecoming is the second novel in my Rocky Mountain Ranch series, and this book was such fun to write. It combines some of the things in life that I love the most—faith, strong family connections, horses, dogs and country life...and cooking! And it even provided a nice reconnection to a wonderful old friend, attorney William Roemerman, who helped with legal aspects of the heroine’s past.
My husband and I live out in the country with three horses, two rescue dogs and a number of rescued kitties. I’ve had horses since I was a little girl of six, so whenever I start a book series set in ranch country, it makes me feel right at home. And in this book, my heroine Chloe is an avid cook—a woman after my own heart.
Since she’s working on a cookbook with recipes gleaned from her beloved grandmother’s recipe box, I thought you might like to try one of those recipes—which is actually a recipe that I have been making for decades!
