Description

After a tragic plane crash kills Jennie Taylor's guardians, she returns to her childhood home-and her first love, Jared Stewart. At just eighteen years old, Jennie had left the Unicorn Ranch in Texas to seek a life in the outside world. But she wasn't just running toward independence. Heartbroken and confused, Jennie fled her home after Jared harshly rejected her on the eve of her birthday. Now she must choose between making a new life on the ranch she has grown to love, or returning to her simple but empty life in England. The choice seems obvious at first, but nothing in life is simple... Jared is forced to share control of his beloved ranch with the woman he wants but can't have. When Jennie receives an anonymous note, she goes to Jared for support. But what she finds is more than she was prepared for, driving the two further apart than ever. When an old friend is murdered and suspicious accidents escalate, endangering Jennie's safety, Jared becomes her reluctant protector. Jennie knows Jared is hiding something, but does he really want her gone from the ranch? And if so, could he be the one behind the ominous threats? Determined to prove Jared isn't involved, Jennie turns detective. Can she succeed in her courageous but reckless investigation...or is the truth a dangerous gift she won't survive?
