As an abused child, Rawley Cooper was taken to live with Dallas and Cordelia Leigh. Growing up at the ranch with a loving family was ideal. Their huge extended family accepted him as one of their own. As Rawley got older, his feelings for Dallas and Cordelia's daughter, Faith, started changing from friendship to more. Knowing he was not good enough for Faith, he left Texas. While working as a cowboy, Rawley receives an urgent telegram asking him to return to the ranch. Now he must face Faith and his feelings for her.

I read the Leigh Brothers Texas Trilogy twenty years ago and loved it. I always hoped that Lorraine Heath would write a story for Rawley. Well, he did get a novella, but I am disappointed. I was expecting so much more. Rawley comes home and we learn exactly what happened to make him leave in a couple of flashback chapters. Then, after talking to Faith about what happened to her while he was gone, he comes to the sudden realization that they belong together. The story was too short and just OK. I did enjoy revisiting all the family members and catching up with their lives. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
