title: All Roads Lead Me Back to You
author: Foster, Kennedy
description: Alice was alone, but not lonely. The ranch fulfilled her, she thought, heart and soul. But the Mexican cowhand she dragged out of a snowbank and into her life that stormy night changed everything....
  
  When a saddled but riderless quarter horse turns up on Alice Andison's Standfast ranch during a harsh Washington blizzard, Alice knows the lost rider's chances for survival are slim. Bracing for the worst, she sets out to find the mare's owner...dead or alive.
  
  On the run from immigration authorities, Mexican ranch hand Domingo Roque would surely have frozen to death in the blinding storm if not for Alice's determined rescue. Keen to repay her, Domingo pits his vaquero skills against the unforgiving weather and brutal workload that is the lot of any rancher. As he works side by side with Alice through the seasons, he finds himself struggling to match the heart and tenacity of his new patrona.
  
  What begins as mutual respect thaws into an unlikely friendship, despite their cultural differences and misunderstandings. For the first time, Domingo feels he may have found a true home in his adopted country. Then, as hopeful and unexpected as the first crocus of spring, love blossoms between the unlikely pair. But with the Immigration Service closing in, and with Domingo's many unexplained disappearances, Alice can't tell what tomorrow will bring. All she knows for sure is that Domingo has rekindled emotions she thought she'd never experience again. Will her fierce loyalty to the ragged cowboy who entered her world by storm cost her everything she has?
  
      In a luminous fiction debut, Kennedy Foster captures the fragile bonds that join us...and travels the roads that bring us back, time and again, to love's saving grace.
