I wanted to rate this with two stars but reconsidered. In my opinion both main characters were pathetic.
The hero because he left the heroine after a night of passion, without an explanation, even without saying good bye to marry his !!! fiancée!!!. Years later when they speak with each other again, he is a successful lawyer and a widower. The explanation he gives the heroine were pathetic and disgraceful. I wondered how the heroine could love such an idiot.
The heroine was hurt by his past behavior, and forgave him but too quickly. The author described her as generous and good-hearted, but to me she seemed too naive and stupid, with no pride and no self-respect. A real doormat.
The story had no interesting plot and dragged on and on. I did not have anything else to read, unfortunately.....

Savannah Beaumont was learning a lesson about her first love and first betrayal. She loved Travis McCord with all of her teenage heart and one night she'd gave herself to Travis as she thought he loved her too. The next morning he was gone and he married someone else. Now nine years later he returned to the horse ranch. She was fighting her feelings, afraid she'd be betrayed again. Travis had never given up on her and there were some secrets he needed to expose to her father so they could be together. A good little story!!
