Charlotte Tucker was raised in small-town Minnesota, where the only real company was the people who came to her Aunt Louise''s boarding house. Several years later, Charlotte is a young woman thirsty to get out of her hometown and see the world. She jumps at the opportunity to take a room on John Grant''s ranch in Sawyer, Oklahoma, to begin a new career. She soon befriends Owen and Hannah Wallace, a brother and sister who have come from Colorado following the death of their mother. Abandoned at an early age by a father they never knew, they are set on revenge against the man who left them—a man they believe is John Grant. As the summer heats up and a brutal storm wreaks havoc on the town, a secret is revealed that threatens to change Charlotte''s life—and her new friends—forever.
