Summary
From: Rebecca Maney
Book Title: Peace in the Valley
Book Author: Ruth Logan Herne
What do you like about this book:
Lucy Carlton barely makes ends meet; raising three young children and one teen sister-in-law, is a feat in and of itself, much less doing it on her own. When she and a famous local literally collide in the middle of a busy intersection, her livelihood as well as her vehicle sustain noticeable damage. Surprisingly, country music star Trey Walker Stafford offers to make amends. With his kind spirit, million dollar smile, and easy way with her children, Lucy cannot afford to make a mistake.
Trey Stafford has come home; his reasons very personal, nevertheless it becomes his mission to make sure that the lovely widow living on the ranch next door doesn't suffer from his poor driving skills or their families' rocky history. Unknowingly, Lucy Carlton finds a way to touch places deep inside Trey's heart that have lain dormant for years. What would it be like to have "peace in this valley" again?
Ruth Logan Herne's entire "Double S Ranch" series has been outstanding and this third and final trip to the ranch is every bit as satisfying as her readers have come to expect.
