When unexpected circumstances take Mercy Rae Harrison and her parents, Jeb & Carla, all the way to Fort Worth, TX, leaving Canadian was the hardest thing she'd ever done, especially at the age of thirteen.

Ten years later, after Jeb passes away, his last wish was for his daughter to return to her birthplace and take care of a piece of land that he left to her.  

Two hundred acres of beautiful farming land, with a ranch house, barn and manmade pond on the land, how could Mercy Rae say no?
 His will states that the ranch has the legal name of The Circle M, but little did he know that Mathis Gillis, the richest man in Canadian had his sites set on her land.

Gillis will stop at nothing while trying to drive the young woman from her home, and thinking her weak, he finds out just how strong Mercy Rae really is with her family and friends standing beside her.

Meanwhile, she meets a handsome cowboy who owns a ranch a couple of miles from hers, and sparks fly as the two get to know each other; taking on old flames who want nothing more than to take out the new competition.

Enjoy this story as it unfolds and Mercy Rae is reunited with past friends and in the process makes new ones.All Rights Reserved

When a problem with her grandmother's will causes her to have need of one of them by her 21st birthday, she sets off to find one of the two-legged annoyances. What she never expected was to find a God-fearing one, let alone a good looking one. All Wade Dylan knows is that he's in a bind.

What starts out as a mere arrangement of convenience turns out to be the worst idea of his life. She thinks she doesn't fit in his world. She is his world.

Reagan's parents died when she was just seven years old. Mallory, Reagan's older sister, was still too young to care for both herself and her sister.

However, after her unexpected relationship with Swayde, her childhood best friend, and love of her life, took a turn for the worst, all Reagan could think about was that she couldn't get out of Wyoming fast enough. Swayde is your typical, rugged cowboy. His smile was enough to melt any girls heart, his eyes made it seem like the sun was always shining, even in the worst storm, his square jaw line accented his dark beard, his body thick with muscles. His physical features and build were intimidating at times, and didn't always match his laid back, easy going, gentlemanly personality. Swayde never thought he would fall for feisty Reagan, and even more so, Reagan never thought that she would fall for him. They end up in this unexpected whirlwind relationship, and everything is hunky dory until Reagan finds out a secret from Swayde's past that would forever change the way she looked at him; a secret he kept from her for over ten years. Confiding in her grandma, Reagan finds out that her grandparents knew the secret all along too. How could the people she thought loved her hurt her so bad and keep this big of a secret from her for so long? When tragedy strikes back in Wyoming, Reagan is forced to move back to the town she swore she would never step boot in again, thus leaving her new life in Montana behind. Through God, can Reagan find a way to forgive the people who hurt her, or will she forever consider Alpine Ridge "Heartbreak Town?"

And nothing is, until she's riding the horses the school bought to calm the students, and her horse goes crazy and takes off into the woods after the teacher walks off to take a student with a bloody nose to the nurses office. Pinhead asshole Ian Grant comes after her. After one look into her eyes, he was hooked. He wants her. Jenny, however, wants nothing to do with him, because let's face it. He's a jerk.
