The End of an Era - The Ridge Ranch

This fall, we say goodbye to Ridge Ranch with the final book in the series: Loving Annie — Isaac and Annie’s story.

(Unless I write the origin story… which I still might.)

Readers met Isaac early on. He’s Conner’s best friend and once served as the corpsman for Conner’s Marine unit. He was also Cooper’s roommate, and in Redeeming Cooper, we saw that Isaac found his happily ever after… but how did he get there?

Over the next few months, I’d love to introduce you to Isaac and Annie in a deeper way — to share their hearts, their journey, and everything in between. It’s a story I still can’t get out of my head.

Let’s send off Ridge Ranch with love.

Meet Isaac
Isaac has been part of the Ridge Ranch family from the very beginning. He’s steady, selfless, and quietly devoted to those he loves.

But you haven’t seen the story behind his happily ever after.

Isaac never failed Annie. He loved her—always. Even when she married someone else. Even when she pushed him away. He left Maple Creek to protect his heart… but he never stopped carrying hers. He never forgot.

Years later, a snowstorm, a stranded SUV, and a brave young boy named Van bring them face to face again. Van is Annie’s son—and in an instant, Isaac sees the woman he never stopped loving… and the family he didn’t know he was missing.

In Loving Annie, Isaac must decide if he’s willing to reopen old wounds to find something even stronger: healing, hope, and a love that never really left.

Meet Annie
Reader’s have seen her from a distance. Isaac’s first love, the one who got away. But Annie was never just the girl who broke his heart.

She was surviving.

Married young to a man who didn’t love her the way she deserved, for reasons most wouldn’t understand, Annie spent years trying to make a broken life work. She lost herself in the process, gave up the one person who truly saw her.

Now a single mom doing her best to protect her son, Annie has rebuilt everything from the ground up. She’s strong, guarded, and more determined than ever to stand on her own.

But fate has other plans.

When a snowstorm, and a wreck bring her face to face with Isaac again, the past crashes into the present and the future she never thought she could have is suddenly right in front of her.

In Loving Annie, you’ll meet a woman who’s protective, honest, and finally ready to fight for the love she’s always wanted… even if it scares her to death.

Next month, we're going to have an opportunity to interview these two. I can't wait.
