I was excited to see this book come up on the list of books for review from Bethany House because I read the first book in the series -No Way Up - and I was eager to see what happened next in the Cimarron Legacy with the Boden Clan.
We left off with the patriarch of the family, Chance, on his way to Denver after a dangerous broken leg, his son Cole had been ambushed and shot, and Heath had just married Sadie Boden. The whole family was being pursued by some Mexican rebels that were after their land. In Book Two, Long Time Gone, we pick up where we left off: Cole recuperates with the help of pious nurse Angie (Who brother Justin takes a shining to), the family tries to flush out the traitors on the ranch, and Chance and Ronnie try to stay safe up in Denver.
(Spoiler alert) Angie gets more of the spotlight in this book for her valor when she's kidnapped. Justin's eyes are opened because of this and he realizes that she's the woman for him. There is also growth with the brothers' relationship, you can see their bond together and their love for Cimarron Ranch by keeping it protected. They're working together while trying not to knock each other out like rival brothers do.
I look forward to a book three which sounds like it has the patriarch and matriarch returning to their home and reuniting the family. The mystery continues with who is sending these killers to their ranch. And I have a feeling there will be more story with tough Mal (maybe a love interest for Cole??)
Even if you haven't read Book One, Book Two explains a lot of the past plot so it's easy to dive in.
