It's 1991 and Reba Cahill loves ranching with Grandma Pearl in north central Idaho, but there's a lot of work and only two of them. Can she find a man worthy of her attentions and strong enough to help her run the ranch? She finds few prospects in the small town of Road's End. But Reba is also missing something else: her mother. Deserted by her at three-years-old, and never knowing her dad, she feels a sense of longing, loss, and bitterness. When elderly, quirky Road's End citizen Maidie Fortress dies, Uncle Seth presents Reba Cahill with an expensive piece of jewelry that turns Reba's world upside down. She is thrust into a journey with Seth that exposes dark family secrets and two cold case murders. The evidence leads her down unexpected paths and towards unsuspected admirers. Will the truth also ruin all hope for romance?
