Rivers Between Us
Greta Rose West
Wisper Dreams #1
A woman fleeing danger returns home to the ex-best friend she once broke — now the sheriff sworn to protect her.
Description
A woman finds safety in the one man she hurt the most. Sheriff of Teton County, Carey Michaels, puts everyone else's needs before his own—always—but when his ex-best friend shows up in his life again, with a ten-year-old daughter and a mountain of problems in tow, he has to decide if he can handle his heart being broken. Again. Francesca Morris feels safer back in her Wyoming hometown, and her daughter Grace is certainly safer than she was in Texas, but the threat in their lives lingers, even in Wisper. The boy she used to love wants to protect her, but doubts and insecurities hit hard, and Frannie can't stand to hurt Carey again, even if he is the big bad sheriff. Carey’s all M.A.N. now, and he never leaves home without his handcuffs, but it isn’t locks Frannie’s afraid of. It's her heart. Fall in love with Carey and Frannie in the first book in the Wisper Dreams Series, with new characters and some of your favorites from Cade Ranch. Rivers Between Us is a standalone, but there will be many books to follow in this charming small-town, each with its own HEA. Trigger Warnings: Our heroine is a victim of domestic violence, but by the end of this book, she and her daughter become survivors!
