A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Edie
When Jericho Farrell left Wayback for a better life, he planned never to return. The small dusty cow town had nothing he wanted, except the one woman he never forgot. No amount of success in the rodeo arena could erase Eden Sawyer from his memory. For Eden, seeing her son Jeb display his father's mannerisms were a constant reminder of the man who had walked out of her life when she needed him most. Years later, when Jericho returns for a rodeo, a heated reunion with Eden ensues. As anger flares between them and sparks fly, it soon becomes apparent old wounds have reopened. When Jericho and Eden clash in a powerful struggle of wills, those around them soon feel the heat. In Roped and Tied, author Mallary Mitchell deftly brings the raw emotion of broken relationships and betrayal to the tale. This is an easy summer read, nearly flawless in its execution. The characters are believable and all too human. Enjoy a wonderful time with the interesting and colorful people of Wayback, Texas.
