He’s a happy bachelor with a simple life on his family’s ranch. She’s a single mother fleeing an abusive husband. Will love become the haven she needs or will her past destroy any chance for happiness?
Sammie
I didn’t mean to kill my husband. All I wanted was to escape his abuse and start a new life with my daughter as far away from him as possible. But in one life-altering second, I had to decide—run or stay and face his family and a possible murder conviction.
I ran.
What else could I do? I’m all my daughter has in this world. I’ll do anything to make sure she’s safe.
My path led me to a new identity, a job and rented room at the Crescent Moon Ranch. Even though I don’t deserve it, the Moon family welcomes me into their loving world. Especially the youngest son, Thad Moon. He’s everything a woman could want—smart, kind, handsome. If only I could tell him the truth about who I really am. But doing so would expose him and his family to danger and scandal. And the last thing I want to do is hurt another family.
Thad
Sammie Scott has secrets. She’s clearly running from someone dangerous. I’m not even sure of her true identity. Regardless, I’ve fallen for her and her little girl. All I want is to keep them safe and give them the life they deserve. But until I know who she really is and what she’s so afraid of, there’s no hope for an honest, loving relationship.
Tess Thompson returns with the fourth installment of her beloved clean-and-wholesome Crescent Moon Ranch series. In this friends-to-lovers, small-town romance, the youngest Moon brother will do anything to protect the woman he loves, even if it means risking his own life.
