Self-exiled to the outrider's cabin of his family ranch, following the death of his young wife, Devon struggles to find the will to live. When a young woman is thrown from a moving train and into his world, he is forced to forget his own heartbreak as he attempts to protect and care for her. Together, the two of them must confront the demons that threaten them. And their future happiness.
Raised on the last of the great old Southern Alberta ranches and trained in journalism, Diane recounts tales of growing up in the bend of the north fork of the Milk River. Author of countless short stories, articles, poems, plays, songs and novels, she brings a wealth of western family ideals to her writing. Nothing intrigues more than a background story. And nothing is quite as peaceful as reliving the past.
