Wishes and Wildflowers by Josie Riviera
This story starts out with Lily and she's arrived at her sister's ranch. SHe is filling out job applications and hasn't decided if she wants to go to Boise, ID or to CA. A little girl, Stella from a neighboring ranch stops by and she has a frog that she is going to put back in the wetlands.
She's truly a free spirit Reid informs her. His wife had died suddenly and he raises her with help from a tutor and housekeeper. Love time Lily gets to spend with not only her own sister and their new baby but time with Reid and Stella. She is there for Reid when the calf got tangled in barb wire fencing and when she had found Stella injured from an exploration day she had. Stella was the first to find the little girl and took care to bring her home to Reid. They do form a bond and it makes Lily not want to leave at all but Reid never asks her to stay.
Miscommunications keep them apart. Love scenery that is explained so beautifully along with fun things Stella brings to everybody: music, animals she has and finds more of, travel and adventures they find themselves entwined in.
Lovely story, one of the bests I've read this year. Can't wait for the next in the series.
