Two memories are fixed in Julia Barker's mind from the day of the Oklahoma City bombing: being trapped under a building, terrified it would collapse, and Mario, the U.S. Deputy Marshal who came to her aid and was trapped with her. She'd never gotten his last name, but after two decades the feel of his arms around her and the sound of his voice in the pitch blackness of the rubble is still clear. And then one day he walks back into her life. When Mario Moretti escorts Jeremy and Billy Hansen back to the Dancing Moon Ranch as the first step in phasing them out of witness protection, he's stunned to find there the woman who'd haunted his memory for years. But as in the past, there's no place in his life for a wife, and nothing has changed, not even the loneliness.AUTHOR'S NOTE: I invite you to check out my "Dancing Moon Ranch Family Album." In it my 13-book Dancing Moon Ranch series is illustrated with over 600 full-color photographs depicting the ranch and all the characters in the series. You'll also see what it was like during the "missing years" in the series, when the children of the characters in Books 1-3 (the heroes and heroines of later books in the series) were growing up on the ranch.
