Publisher Description

Cat is a Calder through and through: proud, headstrong, intelligent, and extremely beautiful. When her fiancé is accidentally killed, she retreats to the family homestead to mourn, vowing never to give her heart to another man. But one reckless night with a handsome, gray-eyed stranger changes her life forever -- and gives her a son with striking gray eyes.

Cat decides to raise the child on her own, but the town treats her as an outcast when they learn she is an unwed mother. Cat is gossiped about meanly, and it takes all her pride to hold her head up and ignore what she knows is being said behind her back.

But Cat cannot ignore the new sheriff. It isn't his rugged good looks that cause her heart to skip a beat when he first arrives in town -- it's his striking gray eyes. It seems impossible, but the man she never thought she would see again is now a part of her life.

Cat finds herself torn between her promise to her first love and powerful, unexpected feelings for her child's father. Cat must decide: Will she take a chance on a new, true love?

"Started reading this series in the 80's. I think the last one was published just a couple of years ago. I've enjoyed them all, especially the early ones set in the old west. The newer one's are contemporary. It follows a large ranch owning family through the generations. "

Quotes

  • “Dailey has written a tale as clearly branded with her imprimatur as the herd on the Triple C Ranch…By turns an old-fashioned western, complete with cattle rustling, and a thoroughly modern romance, this update on the Calder family shows Dailey gamely back on the horse and riding well.” 

    — Publishers Weekly
  • “Entertaining. Fans of the series will find it comforting to return to the Triple C Ranch in Montana to pick up the family saga, which Dailey has done well to keep alive.”

    — Cleveland Plain Dealer
  • “Dailey [has been called] ‘queen of the Western romance,’ and this book proves it.”

    — Dallas Morning News
  • “Both complex characters and a compelling plot line—one infused with a suspense element that Dailey conveys as effortlessly as the essence of a Montana ranching community that will charm the reader throughout…Fans who fell in love with earlier Calder novels will be delighted with this latest chapter in the family chronicle.”

    " Although I've read books with almost the same storyline, I found this book to be interesting simply because of the characters, especially Logan and his attitude. The ending was a bit rushed but overall it was a good read. "

About Judith Ivey

Judith Ivey was born in 1951 in El Paso, Texas.

She then went on to star as Jennifer Jason Leigh’s older sister in the southern gothic thriller Sister, Sister. She came to star (despite her impressive resume) as what would be her better remembered role, Texan B. J. Poteet in the last season of Designing Women. Other notable characters she has played in film include Keanu Reeves’ mother in Devil’s Advocate, one of three intrepid psychics investigating a haunted house in Stephen King’s three-part miniseries Rose Red, and the recurring role of Debra Messing’s mother-in-law Eleanor Markus on Will & Grace. Her audiobook narrations have won her five AudioFile Earphones Awards.
