Seeds of Summer

In Seeds of Summer, Deborah Vogts brings together a most unlikely hero and heroine. Natalie Adams is a rodeo queen, and Jared Logan is a preacher. What brings them together is her need of help with the ranch her recently departed father left her and her two half-siblings. What keeps them together is what makes for a great story. The more Natalie resists help, the more Jared wants to give it until she gives in and realizes that more hands will make for light work. When her step-mother shows up and wants a relationship with her children, Natalie listens to Jared’s advice and gives Libby a second chance against her own better judgment and that of Willard, an old friend of her father. The decision brings worry to Natalie with near disastrous results. Love, faith, and forgiveness weave their way throughout the story. Deb’s knowledge of rodeos, great characters, a well-plotted story, a few surprises, and a satisfying end make this a great read. I’m looking forward to the third book in the Seasons of the Tallgrass series
