Their past stands between them But is a second chance in reach? Planning to take his orphaned niece back home to Chicago, K-9 police officer Malcolm Mitchell encounters an unexpected obstacle--his ex-fianc e, Tenley Jacobs. Six years ago, she jilted him at the altar without explanation. Now the equine therapist has shared guardianship with him. Refusing to give up custody of her late best friend's daughter, Tenley knows she must regain Mac's trust--even if it means revealing the secret that ended their engagement. But as old feelings reignite, will the truth lead to forgiveness...or give Mac a reason to walk away with her heart forever? From Love Inspired: Uplifting stories of faith, forgiveness and hope.
What a great story! After years of separation caused by secrets and guilt, Tenley and Mac are drawn together as co-guardians of Mac's orphaned, six-year-old niece, Jade. Both want what is best for Jade and try to put aside their hard feelings for her sake, but the past stands in the way. Can they manage to be cordial to each other for Jade? Will they spill the secrets of the past that tore them apart? If secrets are revealed, will these two become permanently divided or work through the secrets and guilt to become a family?
The emotions and feelings of guilt and hurt are intense. Forgiveness, when given, is often hard to accept for the guilty party. Ms. Bouldin explores these feelings in an empathetic and inspirational manner. This story drew me in making me feel I was there on the ranch. I definitely recommend Forgiving the Cowboy.
