An interesting and emotional family story

The story is about Ky and Brodie who meet by chance when Ky discovers Brodie camping on his property and rescues Brodie and his little sister from a storm and offers them a roof over their heads.
I enjoyed the author's writing style. He drew the characters well and also portrayed the life and hard work on the ranch well. This includes everything that is needed to keep a ranch running and in the Texan heat, water is an important commodity over which a fight breaks out.
Ky struggles with hostility because he is accused of a crime he did not commit. Brodie is trying to raise his little sister after the death of his parents and has fled from his relatives, from whom he had actually hoped for support.
I quickly took the aunt and little Emily to my heart. The two main characters are believable and their actions understandable. The relationship between the two develops slowly, which is quite fitting here, as they build up a strong connection to each other.
The story entertained me well and I listened to it in one go.

Marcus Barton narrated the audiobook and I think he did a good job. The narrator was new to me, so I was excited. I was able to distinguish the two main protagonists well and I found his deep voice pleasant. He also nailed the aunt's voice quite well.
