Rayna Fields has it all; a thriving big-city career and stunning good looks. But under the surface is a sense of loss. 20 years ago her mother packed up the 5-year-old Rayna and fled Fieldstone Ranch.

Now she has to go back. But waiting for her is the ghost of her estranged father and a run-down ranch threatened by cattle rustlers. Rayna turns to the one person willing to help-a cowboy named, Vince. He knows the ranch and knew her father. But can she trust him? Will his past destroy everything Rayna has worked for? Will Rayna find love on the unforgiving Alberta plains?

"With the exquisite pacing you've probably come to expect from a Steendam novel, along with her knack for pitching a curve at just the right moment to have you flipping pages and leaning forward in your seat, Unforgiving Plains is western writing at its best!"

- Sara Barnard, Bestselling author of Rebekah's Quilt and An Everlasting Heart series.
