The idea Tanner O'Brien had a sister was a surprise, but the more I thought about it, the more sense it made. The best part was learning why his mother left and being able to show another side of the story through Nikki's eyes. Finding the right hero for her took some work, but once found, Mac was the perfect match, with secrets of his own.

Taking a job at the Bent Tree as a counselor for troubled boys, Nikki Johannson has two motives — to help the children in her care and to find her family.

As they each search for what they need, Mac and Nikki fall in love, but will Nikki’s secrets mean the end of their relationship? Family, mistakes, troubled youth and budding love combine to make a sweetly romantic tale.

The sequel to The Rodeo Rider (Jules and Tanner’s tale) is a warm ranch romance starring a fabulous lead pair and a strong wonderful cast especially the kids and the extended family. Mac and Nikki are a fine pairing as each has secrets, but it is her concealment that drives them apart and her from the ranch. Readers will enjoy this entertaining Oklahoma tale as Roxann Delaney provides a fine family drama.
