Rabbit Ranch: The Lanter Promise
Some promises are made.
Some are chosen.
And some wait generations to be understood.
Jasmine Ellis thought she was beginning to understand Rabbit Ranch. She has her horse, her tree house, her best friends Gavin, Hazel, and Darrell—and Max, the loyal Blue Lacy who makes the Rabbit Ranch Five complete.
But Rabbit Ranch has a long memory.
When clues from her grandfather William’s past begin surfacing, Jasmine discovers that the ranch was once connected to something called Lantern—a quiet network created to help people who had nowhere else to turn. At the heart of its history are old promises, forgotten mistakes, six families, and a group of children who called themselves the Rabbit Ranch Five long before Jasmine and her friends ever did.
Then Frankie returns.
She remembers Rabbit Ranch before Jasmine was born. She remembers Scout. She remembers William. And she remembers enough about Lantern to know that some of the stories Jasmine has inherited aren't quite the stories that really happened.
As the new Rabbit Ranch Five follow a trail stretching across generations, Jasmine begins to realize that uncovering the truth may be easier than deciding what to do with it.
Because helping someone doesn't mean owning their choices.
Protecting history doesn't mean hiding it forever.
And carrying on a legacy doesn't mean becoming the person who came before you.
Sometimes the greatest promise you can make is simply to leave the porch light on—and let people decide for themselves whether to come home.
A warm Texas mystery about friendship, family, forgotten history, and four kids and one very determined dog learning that the best adventures aren't about keeping secrets. They're about knowing which ones were never yours to keep.
