      “I made you promises and I intend to keep them.”

      “That’s my Logan,” Amy whispered. “Always doing the right thing. The honorable thing. That’s how you got into this mess to begin with.” She leaned in, her chest brushing his. “We both have a chance to get out of this. To get our lives back. All you have to do is sign.”

      He caught her wrists and pressed kisses to her palms. “I vowed to take care of you and love you every day of my life.”

      She stilled, her expression lifting. “And do you? Love me?”

      “You were the best damn friend I’d ever had. I’ve always cared for you.”

      “That’s not what I’m asking.” She stepped closer, the heat in her eyes burning into him. “You said you swore to love me. What does that mean to you?”

      “It means you have my loyalty. My fidelity and protection. And my support.”

      Her face fell. The spark in her eyes faded. “Those are all very important things,” she said. “But what about your heart?”

Dear Reader,

      I met a boy in college. A brawny, flirtatious one with a wide smile. He wore designer jeans, an expensive watch and spent way too much time on his hair. He enjoyed starting an argument and making me blush. He did everything he could to get me to look up from my books and give him attitude.

      I thought he was ridiculous and told him so. I even rambled off a list of everything I disliked about him.

      He just laughed and said, “Keep going.”

      That’s how it started. But not how it ended. Jason became the best friend I’d ever had. He knew my shyness was debilitating. He coaxed me out of it. He persuaded me to join his kickboxing class, showed me how to hustle at pool and talked me into one more dance after closing time. The music would stop, the lights would go out and he’d just whisper, “Keep going.”

      Jason was a fearless boy. He would’ve grown into an extraordinary man. Only, he never had the chance.

      In The Rancher’s Wife, Logan Slade loses someone very important to him. His heart becomes hard, fills with regret and he finds it difficult to move on. It takes someone special to help him love again. To teach him to keep going.

      Thank you for reading Logan’s story.

      April
