keeping them apart until the very end. They also have a lot of personal issues to work through. Toss in a pair of adorable orphans, and I had my work cut out for me.

      Writing this book has been a bittersweet experience. It will be my last for the Love Inspired Historical line, which is unfortunately closing this month. I feel blessed to have been able to work with the wonderful Love Inspired editors and complete this, my seventeenth book. While I will miss writing about the past, I’m fortunate that I will be switching to the Love Inspired Suspense line. You can find more information on my website, www.karenkirst.com. I’m also active on Facebook and Twitter @KarenKirst.

      If you missed the first two books in this Return to Cowboy Creek continuity, check out Cheryl St. John’s book, The Rancher Inherits a Family, and Sherri Shackelford’s His Substitute Mail-Order Bride.

      Many blessings,

       Karen Kirst

      A man’s heart deviseth his way:

      but the Lord directeth his steps.

      To my mom, Dorothy Kirst, and my sister, Shelly Benson. I’m blessed to have you both! Thanks for making my first writing conference an experience I never want to forget. Thanks for the laughs and fun memories.

       Acknowledgments

      A huge thank-you to editor Elizabeth Mazer. I’ve enjoyed working with you on this project. And to the other Return to Cowboy Creek authors, Cheryl St.John and Sherri Shackelford. It’s been a pleasure.
