Chet and Kimberly have both failed when it comes to love. Will they risk their hearts to love again?
Chet Leonard’s life was forever changed when his 17-year-old son died and then, soon after, his wife walked out on their family. Over two years later, all he wants to do is hold onto his horse ranch and raise his remaining sons to be honorable men.
Kimberly Welch, widowed mother of Tara, a rebellious 15-year-old, has reached the end of her finances and nearly the end of her rope. She and Tara come to King’s Meadow to try to piece their lives back together again. Kimberly has no intention of becoming involved with the residents of this remote mountain community and certainly not with any man.
When octogenarian Anna McKenna returns to King’s Meadow and to the Leonard ranch, she becomes an agent of change and healing for the two hurting families. With her help, Kimberly and Chet may discover that true love has no end.
My take on this book:
Kimberly Welch's husband has been gone three years, dead of a heart attack and in that time she went from a life of privilege to swimming in debt, which causes her to wind up in Kings Meadow. Her almost sixteen year old daughter Tara isn't adjusting well to the change in circumstances and Kimberly isn't sure how to reach her. When someone gifts Tara with an untrained horse they seek out Chet Leonard the best horse trainer around. Chet isn't looking for a relationship because he is dealing with hurt of his own, but a relationship slowly forms between him and Kimberly. Can the pair overcome their past in order to find a happy future?
I have been reading Robin Lee Hatcher's work for a while because she has a unique way of drawing me into her stories, allowing me to feel as if I am right in the midst of the lives of the characters! I always enjoy reading what I consider second chance love stories and with this one Chet and Kimberly are each suffering different kinds of losses that have emotionally scarred them. Wonderfully vivid descriptions allowed me to envision Kings Meadow as well as the Leonard ranch.The story easily transitions from past to present as it not only tells the story of Chet and Kimberly but also we learn about Nana Anna as well.A touching story of how God works to heal hearts that have long decided to give up on love. Love Without End is the first book in A Kings Meadow Romance Series and it easily left me anticipating the next book!
