Rivers Between Us

Sheriff Carey Michaels of Teton County has spent his life putting everyone else first, so when his ex-best friend Francesca Morris returns to Wisper with her ten-year-old daughter and a mountain of unresolved problems, he can't just look away — even though she's the one who broke his heart years ago. Francesca knows she and Grace are safer back home than they were in Texas, but the threat that drove her away hasn't fully disappeared, and she can't stand the thought of hurting Carey again by leaning on him now.

Greta Rose West opens the Wisper Dreams series with a small-town western romance grounded in domestic-violence survival and a second chance neither character feels entitled to.
