Rescue in the Rockies

Rescue in the Rockies

Baker Family Adventures, Book 8

By C. R. Hedgcock

Paperback.

 

It’s springtime and the Bakers are living the dream. Abby is helping her grandparents set up a guest ranch, Phil is visiting Spain, and Andy and Tom are on the farm entertaining three visitors from Scotland. Mr. Baker suggests a road trip to the guest ranch in Wyoming—what better opportunity for Fergus, Dougal, and Wylie to work hard, meet cowboys, and see the West? The lads are all for it and embrace their new surroundings with gusto, while the whole family gets the chance to re-forge bonds with Grandpa and Grandma Baker.

Mustangs, cattle, and roping lessons fade into the background when Jigson arrives, asking Abby to help identify a woman she met in Iceland once before. Meanwhile, Phil seems to offend Briosa at every turn, and Andy catches sight of Fergus’s growing inner turmoil about where he belongs in the world.

When Fergus feels himself being cornered into a future he doesn’t want, he snaps into the survival instincts he knows so well, seizing the opportunity to live wild in the mountains before anyone can stop him. Unbeknown to him, someone is hunting him down to offer a glimmer of hope that is as appealing as it is dangerous—but will it truly give rest to his soul and end his desperate attempts to be free? Or will it push him farther away from what he yearns for … the only home that can ever satisfy him?

Rescue in the Rockies is Book Eight in the Baker Family Adventures series.

Excerpt

Fergus didn’t waste a second. He ducked under the horse’s belly and scrambled to mount on the left side, then wound the rope binding his wrists around the saddle-horn for leverage. Bellowing a Yeehaw!, he kicked the big sorrel’s sides. In a burst of speed it took off, yanking the rope out of Kent’s hand. “Hey!” Kent yelled, mad. “Come back!”
