James & Hannah McKinnon have a brood of kids, all of whom are a credit to them. Although the boys all ran off to various branches of the military, Molly their sister is the true cowgirl in this family. SHe can run rings around them on the ranch and the wilderness and they better get used to that fact pronto! Angus is the eldest of the kids and when their father goes missing in the mountains whilst part of a posse looking for a dangerous criminal, he and his siblings are called back to the ranch. He may be a big bad Delta Force member but he is a big old teddy bear inside, he still misses his first love Bree, who ditched him and then vanished from the area. Bree had every intention of staying and living the life with Angus that they had planned. But when tragedy strikes close to home, she flees leaving behind her family but she still clings to the love for Angus. She has discreetly returned to town to aid her mother but can she survive when she realises that Angus has also come back to town? Is the poisoning of her mother linked to the disappearance of Angus' father? Do these former young loves have the strength and courage to pick up where they left off or are they better off following their own paths? Great start to a new series. All the lads are Alphas, their mother must have loved having all that testosterone floating around! Don't discount Molly. She may have stayed at home but she is strong, independent and has a spine of steel. I pity the man who tries to ride roughshod over her! Bree...she really is complicated. I went from loving her to thinking she is naive as heck, to wanting to be her friend again! Looking forward to the next book!
