A McKettrick man always comes home … Don’t miss this reader favorite McKettrick tale from #1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller.

Fast track up the political ladder, fast cars, fast flings—that’s Garrett McKettrick. Make that was. A scandal has slowed him down and brought him home to Blue River, Texas, a place where a man can take stock. Where he can plan his next move. Which doesn’t include staying at the family ranch with his brothers. A city boy, Garrett doesn’t think he has the land in his blood.

But Blue River has other attractions, like his former high school nemesis, Julie Remington. Now a striking woman, Julie comes complete with a four-year-old cowboy, a three-legged beagle and deep ties to the community. Good thing he and Julie have nothing in common except their undeniable attraction. Or is Garrett more of a country boy than he thought?
