He let her go once.
Will his secrets tear them apart again?
Five years ago, ranching entrepreneur Farris Quinn let India Lamont walk away from their marriage. Now he needs her help caring for his ailing mother. India agrees to come to Wyoming—but only for his mother’s sake. For Farris, living under the same roof as India in the home they once shared is tempting torture, and it’s only a matter of time before she’s back in his bed. But he’s guarded his secrets for so long…will he break both their hearts a second time?
An emotional reunion story! RETURN OF THE RANCHER by Janice Maynard begins dramatically when India agrees to do a favor for her ex-husband which puts them under the same roof again after years apart. The tension is high, the characters are attention grabbing and the underlying reunion is heartwarming. I wanted a tad bit more at the end, but overall a really enjoyable read.
India is kind, accomplished and endearing. She steps in to help her ex because it involves his mother whom she loves. I was happy to see her get the ending she deserved.
Farris was a bit cold and obtuse, but as the story unfolded we understood him a bit better.
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys seeing a couple overcome the adversity that split them up to remember the love they felt for each other and develop a stronger relationship going forward.
