About the book
New beginnings aren’t easy—but in Juniper Falls, they just might be worth the risk.
Wyoming Territory, 1882: The rugged ranching town of Juniper Falls holds both promises and surprises for those willing to brave its untamed landscape. Charlotte McBride, alongside her husband and daughter Matilda, arrives with dreams of running the town’s inn, only to find it reduced to ashes. With their future in jeopardy, the McBrides are taken in by Edith Bennett, the strong-willed owner of the local boarding house—despite the fact they’re set to be her competition.
As the inn is rebuilt, Matilda yearns for adventure before returning to her city life back East. But with every new friendship she forges, the wild frontier begins to feel more like home.
