A ranch challenge tests Andi’s resolve

As Andi approaches sixteen, her plans for school, family life, and work at the ranch are upended by the arrival of her cousin Daniel, who resists ranch responsibilities and repeatedly causes trouble. His actions eventually put lives in danger, while a secret he shares with Andi complicates her response. The story brings together family change, ranch life, accountability, and the consequences of keeping silent. Set within the Christian historical fiction category, it also traces Andi’s struggle with anger and the possibility of healing after loss.

Book overview

Andi's newest adventure may be more than she can handle--even with her family's help

Andrea Carter is turning sweet 16 and life could not be better. She's about to finish school, her sister Melinda is getting married, and her older brother Justin has a new baby to spoil. There will be plenty of time to work with the colt of her treasured palomino horse, Taffy, and best of all, Andi will finally get to work full-time for the ranch she loves.

There's just one problem: a city-slicker cousin named Daniel. Left there by his father, with a cryptic warning that New York City life has done damage to the young man's character, Daniel wants nothing to do with the ranch. He ignores Andi's lessons, walks away from responsibility, wrecks valuable equipment, and even runs away to San Francisco.

The Carter family is in a frenzy trying to keep Daniel under control. When Andi discovers a horrifying secret about him, he forces her to stay silent. But all that changes when Daniel's actions put lives in danger. Andi's anger over her loss threatens to destroy not only Andi but her entire Circle C world. Can anyone break through the wall around Andi's bitter heart and help her find healing?

Loyal long-time readers of Susan Marlow's historical fiction will line up for an older Andi's newest adventure, and her discovery of how powerful love can be.
