Her name is Cheyenne. But who is she?
After growing up in cheap motels, moving from town to town with her sister and mother, Cheyenne Christensen is grateful to be on her own. She’s grateful, too, for the friends she found once her family settled in California. But she’s troubled by the mystery of her earliest memories, most of which feature a smiling blonde woman. A woman who isn’t her mother.
Although Cheyenne has repeatedly asked for explanations, the people who could help aren’t talking. Cheyenne is set on finding answers, but without so much as a birth certificate, it won’t be easy.
Things get even more complicated when her closest friend is attracted to the man Cheyenne has secretly loved for years. For Eve’s sake, she decides to step aside—which lands her right in the arms of Dylan Amos, oldest and baddest of the hell-raising Amos brothers. He’s the kind of guy she’s sworn to avoid. She can’t afford to make a mistake, not when she finally has a chance to learn who she really is and change her life for the better. But…maybe there’s more to Dylan than she thought. Maybe letting him go would be a bigger mistake.

When Snow Falls
Brenda Novak
To Stephanie Novembri.
Thank you for all the volunteer hours you’ve put in on my annual online auction for diabetes research.
You came into my life at a time when I really needed some help—and you’ve been there for me ever since.
Dear Reader,
Who can resist a story about a woman who isn’t sure her mother is really her mother? When I started this book, I couldn’t stop thinking about that situation, how it would make my heroine feel—and what she might do to find the truth. It kept me eager to write each day.
Cheyenne has always had her doubts about Anita, has always wondered why certain troubling memories surfaced again and again, especially when it snowed. But given her childhood, she has to wonder if maybe she created a pleasant fantasy in order to cope with reality. Because of her sister, and the duty she feels to the woman who raised her, she vacillates between aggressively exploring her past and shying away from it, especially now that she’s established herself in Whiskey Creek and is happier than she’s ever been. Part of her doesn’t want to rock the boat—but the questions that have gnawed at her for years just won’t go away. And if she’s ever to answer them, she has to act soon. Anita is dying of cancer. If she doesn’t tell what she knows before the end, it may be too late.
That right there was enough to keep my attention—but then Dylan Amos walked onto the scene and added a few complications of his own. I hope you’ll enjoy reading all the intrigue as much as I enjoyed writing it!
I’d like to thank Marcy Mostats-Passuello, whose name appears as a character in this book, for her generous support of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Because Dylan is one of my favorite heroes (and he has four sexy brothers who will appear in future books), I’ve had a fabulous Amos Auto Body T-shirt (black with white imprint) designed for those who might like one. You can purchase it and other Whiskey Creek items at www.brendanovak.com. There, you can also find more information about my books and my annual online auction for diabetes research, which happens every May. So far we’ve raised more than $1.6 million!
