Reagan Renne Walker left the tiny town that she grew up in in Wyoming five years ago to fulfill her dream of opening an equine therapy ranch in Montana & to start a new life. Reagan's parents died when she was just seven years old. Mallory, Reagan's older sister, was still too young to care for both herself and her sister. As a result, Reagan and Mallory were forced to live with their grandparents. Mamaw and Papaw Walker sent both girls through school and college. Reagan never imagined leaving Wyoming. However, after her unexpected relationship with Swayde, her childhood best friend, and love of her life, took a turn for the worst, all Reagan could think about was that she couldn't get out of Wyoming fast enough. Swayde is your typical, rugged cowboy. His smile was enough to melt any girls heart, his eyes made it seem like the sun was always shining, even in the worst storm, his square jaw line accented his dark beard, his body thick with muscles. His physical features and build were intimidating at times, and didn't always match his laid back, easy going, gentlemanly personality. Swayde never thought he would fall for feisty Reagan, and even more so, Reagan never thought that she would fall for him. They end up in this unexpected whirlwind relationship, and everything is hunky dory until Reagan finds out a secret from Swayde's past that would forever change the way she looked at him; a secret he kept from her for over ten years. Confiding in her grandma, Reagan finds out that her grandparents knew the secret all along too. How could the people she thought loved her hurt her so bad and keep this big of a secret from her for so long? When tragedy strikes back in Wyoming, Reagan is forced to move back to the town she swore she would never step boot in again, thus leaving her new life in Montana behind. Through God, can Reagan find a way to forgive the people who hurt her, or will she forever consider Alpine Ridge "Heartbreak Town?"…
After six years of being broken up, Swayde and Reagan Renne, "Renne," are finally reconciling their relationship. Since she broke up with her long-time-rebound of a boyfriend, Renne had moved back to Wyoming to continue on with the life that she loved, in the town that she loved. Her therapy ranch in Montana had taken off so well that she was considering moving the headquarters to Alpine Ridge in Wyoming. Things were finally going well between Swayde and Renne as a couple, but for them it seemed like every good thing must come to an end. Trial after trial, hardship after hardship seemed to occur for the couple, truly testing the strength of their relationship. With God as the center of their relationship, will the couple be able to look past their tribulations to see where their love for each other started, and that is it still very much there? What will it take for Swayde and Renne To Not Let Go? Important Note: This book is a sequel to Heartbreak Town, and although I will do my best to reiterate scenarios and details to make the book understandable on it's own, there are numerous parts that will make the most sense if reading Heartbreak Town first. Thank y'all so much, and I hope that y'all enjoy this book as much as I have enjoyed writing it. God bless. :)…

Misty McAdams is the only female hand on the McAdams' ranch, but she works just as hard as any of the cowboys. For many generations, her family has rescued and trained wild mustangs, then giving them to great homes.

Lacey Anne Ferry grew up on a cattle ranch in Montana where riding horses was an everyday part of her life. She loved the horses, cattle, and the hard work that came with living on a working ranch. In the little free time that she had, Lacey rodeoed. When she wasn't running barrels, she was roping; when she wasn't roping, she was pole bending; when she wasn't pole bending, she was cutting...the list went on.
