    About this ebook

    Nevada's rugged, majestic beauty is a balm for the aches of Hope Gardener's heart. But the ranch she loves is dying of thirst, thanks to the worst drought the area has ever seen, Hope needs a miracle -- and one day it comes to the Valley of the Sun.

    A man out of time, Rio is an anachronism in the modern-day West, bringing with him a reputation for finding water in any desert. Hope has no choice but to trust this dark stranger who claims to make dreams real. And Rio, who has never had a dream of his own to follow, has found something in this extraordinary lady whose passion tempts him to defy his own rules.In the midst of adversity, two free spirits must now explore the most closely guarded corners of their hearts...as they search for a beautiful dream big enough to hold them both.

      This romance, set on a Nevada ranch called Valley of the Sun where a hard-working woman is struggling to keep the dream of a new well alive during the worst drought in years. Enter Rio, a half-Indian hydrologist whose true name is Brother-to-the-wind. Hope and Rio try to keep from loving each other, but because this is a romance novel, we all know they're not going to succeed. With all the talk of water, though, this book will definitely make you thirsty.
    • 4/5
      Hope Gardener's love for her drought-stricken Nevada ranch runs deep, but if she doesn't find someone who can drill deep enough to locate water soon, her ranch is going to fail. Past experience has left her unwilling to dream, but when a man named Rio appears and offers her hope, she throws her heart into believing in him. Rio's life is following the wind - that he won't stay is no secret, but Hope's love and trust is the most precious thing he's ever known.This is an oldie and very predictable, but it's great for a curl-up on the couch on a rainy day.
