Sometimes, You Have to Take a Second Chance on the First Love of Your Life Five years ago, Jessy Kalender left Deer Creek, Wyoming, with a broken heart. And, she'd found a comfortable, quiet kind of love in the arms of Brad Sheldon. But Jessy still yearned for the kind of love she knew back at Deer Creek - the kind of love she could only find in the strong arms of Matt Donovan. Now, Jessy - along with her faithful border collie, Maggie, and her beloved Appaloosa, Belle - head north to come home and accept the inheritance that rightly belongs to her: The Diamond-K Ranch. Through it all, memories of Matt tug at her heart. She knows she'll run into him eventually. And with a head full of unanswered questions, she's unsure how she'll handle that. Matt Donovan had never stopped loving Jessy. He didn't know why she'd left Deer Creek. The one thing he did know was that there was an emptiness in his heart only she could fill. But when the two finally meet, there's little time to rekindle past feelings. Suddenly, the truth begins to emerge about what really happened to cause the two lovers' separation years ago. Then Jessy receives the news that the mother she thought was dead might be alive - revealing a deep-buried family secret that's too horrible to imagine. A gorgeously drawn portrait of love and life in the American West, Rainstorm is about the enduring power of human relationships to survive despite all obstacles. | Rainstorm by Diane Brandow, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
