About the Book:
Susan and her newly adopted son, little Billy, adventured into their lives together. The separation from Stephanie had given her plenty of time to search her heart. Susan knew that she loved her, but would Stephanie want her back when she found out about Billy and his illness?
What did Lisa, the attorney from Florida, showing up out of the blue mean for Susan? Would Lisa end up taking away everything she loved?
Stephanie agonized over her feelings for both women. She loved Susan more than anything, but there was something about Johnnie that captivated her, drawing her in. Loneliness filled her days and consumed her nights. She longed to feel her touch once more.
Johnnie couldn't understand Stephanie's motives for coming on to her. Now with Susan back in the States, would Johnnie again have to pack up her little red truck and move on?
Abby was a new player in their intricate lives, would she fit in and be embraced?
The haunting dreams were becoming more realistic, causing Tiffany to grow miserable each day. She relived the attack every time she closed her eyes. "How can I live like this the rest of my life," She cried inwardly.
She passed the highway leading up the mountain to the Flibberty Jibberty Rose Ranch. She didn't know what made her do it. When she turned towards the ranch instead of going straight on up the road to the bank, and then on to the highway heading out of town, she felt bemused by her own actions. "What the hell are you doing this for? All it will get you is more trouble," she thought to herself. Teresa had said that Stephanie was riding the fence lines, and she knew she would have very little if any trouble finding her. She knew the ranch as well as she knew the lines on the back of her own hand. Johnnie parked the truck at the west pasture and got out. Straining to listen and hearing nothing she decided to start heading out up along the trail. She didn't want to be doing this but she knew she could not leave town without at least saying good-bye to Stephanie. Johnnie caught sight of Stephanie, after more than an hour of walking. She was crouched over to fix two loose wires at the base of a fence post. As she approached, Johnnie knew that Stephanie was still oblivious to her, as well as everything else around her. Johnnie knew in that instance what she was going to do. She figured she would be slapped or at the very least cursed out, but she knew she didn't care. Right now, all she wanted was to feel this woman in her arms at least one more time. Stephanie was startled when she heard a husky voice behind her say, "Close your eyes and don't turn around. I will not hurt you, I will never hurt you." She felt a hand on her shoulder and another hand caressing her back. As she gasped in a large gulp of air, she shut her eyes. Stephanie was more turned on than she cared to admit and she most definitely was not afraid. Stephanie rolled her head back and let her eyes remain closed. "If she pretended not to know who this was then it would all be ok, to do just one more time," she thought. "No one will get hurt. No one will even need to know." "If you want me to stop I will," the voice whispered. "But, I don't want to stop. I don't want to ever stop, please don't make me stop baby. Please say you want me to keep going, to love you, please say you will keep me forever." "No, I don't want you to stop." Stephanie pleaded into the air, as hands caressed her shoulders, and lips brushed against her ear and neck sending shivers down her body. "I do want this, I want it right now, but I don't want it forever--" she let her last statement trail off and be carried away with the wind.

Awesome series,
Whenever I read the next book from this author, I find myself holding my breath for my favorite people in the story. I love the cover of this book. I can now see the ranch and not have to try and picture it in my mind, and Oh My did you get a load of the new twist she throws in?? Good golly miss molly they were juicy to say the least! More please! I must say, it makes me mad when I read some of the crap things people waste their time writing just for the sake of bad mouthing someone. Shame on you! Shame, shame, shame, you know who you are. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. We can all make up our own minds, and this is the way it should be. This was well worth the money I paid for this book and I look forward to the next one.
