Book Review ~ A Rancher's Return by Jen Gilroy ~ 10/23/2024

~~~~~~~~

Blurb:

Home is…where their hearts never left.


Molly Carter’s come back to her family’s ranch in High Valley, Montana just long enough to take a breather before returning to her city life in Atlanta. But being home for the holidays is bittersweet, especially when she learns that Troy Clayton has returned to buy the Bitterroot ranch. Once they were sweethearts. Now being face-to-face with the handsome rancher is making her reassess everything — including the feelings she still has for him. But following your dreams doesn’t always mean following your heart…especially when love comes a second time around.

My Thoughts:

****

Sigh...  What a sweet read "A Rancher's Return" was...  

I think I fell in love with High Valley, Montana and all her inhabitants.

The extended High Valley family was amazing.  The town's people, the Carter family and all the children, and the town itself was perfectly written.

I also loved Molly's and Troy's history together and the back story the author, Jen Gilroy, created.  It was so fun reading about a young love that took years and separation to come back around as if time and distance were nothing.

The book takes place from October through December so now was the perfect time to read it.  From dressing up for Halloween, to Thanksgiving, to snowstorms, to a tree lighting and Christmas parade, this book was so much fun!

This is the first book I've read by Jen Gilroy, but I've found yet another great new-to-me author.  I look forward to reading more stories written by her.

This was a sweet, clean read.

I am very excited and thankful to review this book today!

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
