Over seventeen years ago, Leah Rebel gave birth to a daughter
Eden. However, her husband Falcon noticed
his wife was not the same. Three months
after their child was born, Leah leaves behind a note with no warm salutations
explaining she needs time. In the present
single dad Falcon reflects on he waited long enough for his spouse to come home
to her family and that he never could explain to Eden why her mom abandoned her
and him.
Thus Falcon is stunned when Leah arrives at the ranch with one
request: to meet Eden, but also promises to disappear forever afterward. Though he wants to loath her and resents her
desertion, Falcon feels like a fool because he still loves her. He also thinks Leah has been dishonest about
why she left and where she has been since she vanished. Even his argument that Eden needs her mom
fails to sway her to stay in touch.
Falcon vows to learn what frightens his wife that she ran away once and
looks ready to bolt again.
Though over the top, the second Texas
Rebels ranch romance (see Egan) is a suspenseful, entertaining second
chance at family. The single dad and his
teenage daughter are pleasing characters, but the enigmatic runaway makes for a
fascinating drama.
