The Dutton family had owned the Yellowstone Ranch for seven generations. Seven generations of Duttons were born, raised and died on the Yellowstone Ranch. They had been uncontested for years...until now. "Ranching is the only business where the goal is to break even. Survive another season. Last long enough for your children to continue the cycle, and maybe, just maybe the land is still theirs when a tree sprouts from you." -John Dutton Athena Dutton loved the ranch she was born on and had lived her life with only the thought on how she could continue her family's legacy. Being the youngest daughter and the unofficial 'favorite' of their father's was a blessing and hinderance to the woman who lived up to her name. She was named after the Goddess of War and she was prepared to fight for the Yellowstone, her family and the love of her life.

Being practically raised by the Duttons seems like a dream for some. But Elisabeth had it rough. Her dad was a runaway and her mom was never around. When she turned 12, she found work all the way up in Montana at the Yellowstone Ranch. Not only did she find work, but she found a family. As tension rises in the valley, enemies will strike and secrets will be uncovered. How will the family handle everything? And how many lives will it cost...?
