The Long Road to Grass Range

The Long Road to Grass Range

Las Vegas, 1974.

Marlene never imagined this would be her life.

At twenty-nine, she's raising six children, stretching every dollar, and trying to hold together a marriage that seems to be slipping further away each day. At night, after the children are asleep, she escapes into romance novels where happy endings happen all the time. But real life has taught her that happy endings belong only in books, not to women like her.

Then one desperate decision changes everything.

Packing her children into the old station wagon, Marlene sets out for a ranch in the tiny Montana town of Grass Range, hoping only to earn enough to build a better future for the family she refuses to give up on.

What she finds beyond the mountains is something she never expected: a close-knit ranch community and a rugged rancher whose steady heart challenges everything she thought she knew about love.

As the miles slip behind them, Marlene begins to discover that the greatest love stories aren't always the ones written in novels. Sometimes they're built one choice and one ordinary day at a time.

A heartfelt historical family saga about courage, second chances, and finding home where you least expect it.
