The Cowboy
Synopsis
The first book in Joan Johnston's trilogy of Western romances chronicling the century-old feud between two Texas ranch families--the Blackthornes and the Creeds--features Trace Blackthorne and Callie Creed. Sworn enemies by birth, Trace and Callie nevertheless form a secret love in their youth that is quickly torn by family loyalty. Years later, Callie is the young widow of her father's foreman and the single mother of two children. Trace, meanwhile, is forced to return to their small hometown to care for his ailing father. Sparks fly when Trace and Callie finally cross paths. But will the circumstances that drove them apart as teenagers come between them once again as adults?
Publisher's Note
Joan Johnston transports us to rugged present-day Texas-a place of wide-open prairies and unbridled ambitions-where two ranching families, the Blackthornes and the Creeds, are locked in a bitter century-old feud. Here, Johnston brings to life a breathtaking love story-between the Blackthornes' oldest son and the Creeds' beautiful daughter-a magnificent novel of passion, vengeance, and star-crossed love.
Trace Blackthorne was taught from the cradle to take what he wanted. And he wanted Callie Creed. Eleven years ago, the feud between their families had torn them apart. But now Trace has come home, a ruthless hard-eyed stranger, making her an offer she couldn't refuse: marry him and save her struggling family from financial ruin. But the secrets of the past return to haunt them. And Callie is once again compelled to make an impossible choice-between the family who desperately needs her and the only man she has ever loved.
Trace Blackthorne offers to save Callie Creed's family from financial ruin, despite the long feud between their families, if she will marry him.
