1006 Alamo Way (Rojo 2nd Generation: Lonestar Terrace, #5)

The Middleton sisters are starting a new life in Rojo, Texas, far away from the shared unhappiness of a childhood spent with an uncaring father. It’s time to explore the world and find their way together. After months of hard work getting it started, the business partnership with her sister Tansy is everything she dreamed it would be, but that’s not the only thing that’s changing in Darcy’s life. On the wrong path after years of blunders and errors in judgment that she can’t or doesn’t want to acknowledge, Darcy almost fell victim to a crime that happens way too often when alcohol is involved. Luckily, she was rescued by a handsome stranger who had nothing but good intentions and a long history of taking care of people who needed him.

That was the wake-up call she needed to make some very necessary changes. Her first order of business was to work on herself with the help of her family and the new friends she’d made in Rojo. Through it all, the gallant stranger whom she can only remember bits and pieces of isn’t far from her mind, so when he walks into her shop and needs her help, she’s more than happy to oblige.

What she didn’t plan to do was give him her heart, but love laughs in the face of the best-laid plans. Darcy will have to decide what’s more important - the vow she made to herself or the bright, fulfilling future she could have if she just gave him a chance.

Caring for those in need comes naturally to Crow Forrester - whether it’s his brother’s girl and their son, his little sister’s childhood friend, or vulnerable puppies needing love and care to survive, you can count on him to step up. When he rescued a woman from a situation that could have gone horribly wrong, he didn’t ask for recognition or credit. As a matter of fact, he didn’t even give her his name.

But in a town as small as Rojo, running into her again was bound to happen - just like the love story that followed. It’s a modern-day fairy tale, complete with a villain, a princess, and, if fate allows, a stepmother who turns out to be not so wicked after all.

Join Cee Bowerman back in Rojo as she unravels this heartfelt romance, finally giving one of the most beloved Forresters the happy ending he deserves, while also bringing us back to the friends and family we’ve all come to adore.
