They weren’t tied to me by blood, but our connection went beyond genetics or bearing the same last name. Our connection was forged the summer I turned thirteen, the summer my mom ended her life and left me in the custody of John Armstrong, a man I’d never met. Packing all I owned in a couple of boxes, I left the familiarity of the big city and headed west to Red Mountain Ranch, set in a lonely valley outside of Jackson Hole.Nothing was as it seemed at Red Mountain—it didn’t take long for me to figure that out.

Finally, I’m back. But what I didn’t realize was that running away from the wrong brother meant I’d also run away from the right one.
