Peter O’Keefe returns to Carmella Ranch as a lost soul, but he faces restrictions that delay him from starting a new job for weeks, leaving Sarah to confront a past she has tried to bury. Balancing heartfelt longing, financial and care responsibilities of rescue work, and the emotional fallout of earlier choices, Sarah must decide whether reopening old wounds can lead to genuine love. The story also acknowledges accessibility options for readers.","“I’ve missed you, Sarah.”  \nShe rested her head on his chest and breathed him in. “I missed you too.” Being close to Pete was like returning to a familiar place. Their bodies swayed with the gentle rhythm of the song.  \n“I found out I can’t start in Phoenix until I’m released by a doctor, which won’t be for at least another four weeks.” He cleared his throat. “I could stay a little while longer and build more social media content. And help around the ranch as much as my bum arm allows. Only if you want me to. If you’d rather I didn’t stick around, then I’ll head south and hang out in the heat until I can start work.”  \nHer head spun. Pete staying longer was her dream and nightmare combined. She’d already felt her heart slipping and he’d only been here less than a week. What if she remembered all the reasons she’d loved him?  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nDear Reader,  \nImagine the most ideal place to live. For Sarah Carmella, nothing compares to her beloved ranch. Who could blame her? The beauty of the mountains and rivers in the Cascade Range region of Washington State is truly unmatched. Waking up every morning on a property filled with horses and other rescue animals is a dream come true. For Sarah, her purpose is found in taking care of those entrusted to her.  \nPeter O’Keefe returns to Carmella Ranch as a lost soul, unsure of where or when he will settle down. The only certainty he has when stepping foot back on the ranch is that he can’t stay. But will fate prove him wrong?  \nI thoroughly enjoyed researching the intricacies of a horse ranch. Animal rescue is an expensive undertaking, and Sarah’s concerns about finances reflect the struggles many organizations face in providing food, medical care and housing.

With each step, the hard soles of her boots rapped on the wood. She spun around to face her friend, or at least she had considered Jacob Wood a friend—until now.“Why did you wait to tell me?”  \nJacob retreated down to the top porch step.
