About this ebook
Rancher Garrett Lord was at a turning point in his life.
He needed to know why his natural mother had abandoned him and his siblings all those years ago. All he had left of his past was an old teddy bear, three baby sweaters, and a trail that had gone cold in the Texas hill country.
So when he discovered Mimi Cassville hiding out in his barn in a wedding gown and veil, he didn't want to hear her story. She had fled Austin with shredded stockings and blistered feet, desperate for sanctuary after uncovering her fiancé's deceit.
As far as Garrett was concerned, Mimi must have abandoned and betrayed her groom. But that was far from the truth, and Mimi was about to teach Garrett that some of life's hardest choices were made out of love.
