Suffering from PTSD due to a vicious assault, lovely Bertie with the creamy complexion and golden curls, moves out of downtown Pendleton to Nash's Folly, the ranch of Garrett and Aundy, in an effort to heal from her trauma. Who should she meet out there but newcomer Riley who has purchased the farm nearest them and works as a hired hand at Nash's Folly to help pay for renovations to his own property. The handsome young farmer has relocated from Kansas to heal from a secret tragedy of his own and the romantic attraction between these two is undeniable. As Bertie's love for Riley deepens, she is puzzled by the melancholy Riley's stubborn refusal to declare his affection in return. With the help of their many friends, will these two ever get over their damaged hearts? This reader thought he had it figured out but was absolutely blind-sided by a shocking reveal near the climax.Almost every one of the lovable heroes and heroines from the previous six romantic Westerns in the Pendleton Petticoats series are revisited in this beautiful love story and although this latest work is also a stand-alone novel, the author enticingly invites us to read each of the previous installments in order to more fully appreciate the stories of each of her colorful cast of characters.Along the way, meet some sweet children from the orphanage of Lars and Marnie and a few of Pendleton's most colorful barnyard animals for some wild humor along the way. The hilarious antics of these animal characters almost steal the show. The author's attention to the minutae in her turn-of-the-century details draw the reader into the story in the most entertaining and intimate way.Just when I thought the Pendleton Petticoats series could not possibly get any better it DOES with Bertie.
