Synopsis
#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts surpasses herself once again, with a novel as sweeping and extraordinary as the Montana sky itself...
When Jack Mercy died, he left behind a ranch worth nearly twenty million dollars.

They are sisters...and strangers. Now they face a challenge: to put their bitterness aside and live like a family. To protect each other from danger--and unite against an enemy who threatens to destroy them all...
