A widowed Christmas tree farm owner and her fiancé, a forest service special agent, deal with fires, thefts, and a 90-year family feud—stretching them to the snapping point.

After experiencing an attack, theft, and arson on the family Christmas tree farm, newly engaged Toni Stevens searches for those responsible, including disputed historic records. With two boys and a mother to support, the pressure is on her to increase profitability of the tree farm. Who is trying to ruin her? Can she put a stop to the generational feud?

Toni’s fiancé, U.S. Forest Service Special Agent Sam Duncan is hunting down a potential arsonist turned murderer. His rugged paths uncover Montana drug runners, feudal secrets—and a host of emotions that were buried alive.

Book Excerpt

[Toni] looked at Evah. “I used to have a tee-shirt similar to Mary Jane’s, but mine was red with gold Marine Corps lettering.”

Mary Jane smoothed the front of the tee-shirt she wore. “My shirts are mostly Army green with black letters. Kind of plain, I guess.”

Evah laughed, “There’s nothing plain about you, Auntie.” Toni and Mary Jane joined in the laughter.

Mary Jane’s expression turned serious, and she gave Toni a hard look. “I hear you had some vandalism over at your place.” She lowered her voice. “That right?”

“Yes. Someone trespassed on our farm property and cut down, stole, a hundred and sixty black walnut trees. I still can hardly believe it. They cut down all those trees and I didn’t even know it. I didn’t hear a thing.” Suddenly, she couldn’t stop the tears from welling in her eyes. “That’s right, I didn’t hear or see anything. It’s mind-boggling.”

“Sounds like you could use some help.” Mary Jane whispered, leaning closer to Toni.
