The Callahan Ranch Series

Rose Callahan left Blackstone Creek Ranch years ago, but when her brother Wade dies in a suspicious truck crash on the mountain road, Rose is dragged back to the land she thought she had escaped.

Blackstone Creek is no ordinary ranch. It is thousands of acres of hard Montana land, cattle, old enemies, and older sins. Her father, Caleb Callahan, built it with force, fear, and secrets. Her brother Boone believes he should inherit it. Her reckless sister Elsie knows more than anyone realizes. Her mother Ruth has spent a lifetime keeping the family's worst truths buried. And Caleb's silent right-hand man, Kit Keller, may be tied to a crime that goes back decades.

When Caleb leaves control of Blackstone Creek to Rose, the family fractures. Then the threats begin.

A dead steer is hung from the ranch entrance, the Callahan brand cut from its hide. An old rival, Silas Creed, circles the ranch with revenge in his blood. And the deeper Rose digs into Wade's final days, the more she realizes the danger she faces.

To save Blackstone Creek, Rose must learn how her father held power for so long: through leverage, silence, loyalty, fear, and the careful use of men willing to get their hands dirty. But every choice pulls her closer to the thing she swore she would never become.

A Callahan . . .

A woman can leave a ranch. The ranch does not always let her go.
