A Return West: An Adventure in the Roaring Twenties
Kari August
A brooding ex-WWI flyer and a runaway socialite collide in a high-stakes land deal.
As teenagers, growing up in Wyoming, Caroline and Row clashed as much as the jagged peaks of the Tetons. Now years later, it is the Roaring Twenties, and Caroline is an unhappy New Yorker, desperate for a way to support herself so she can escape her mistake of a marriage. Meanwhile, Row is seeking to prove himself at a small-town bank, after a failed marriage of his own, and a haunting defeat as a fighter pilot in the recent Great War. He would like nothing better than to find a new wife, have some kids, and finally settle into what has become an elusive happily ever after. The last person he has in mind for that is troublesome Caroline from his past.
Yet as fate would have it, Caroline and Row are both hired by a well-off financier to work as a team, buying land in Jackson Hole. Besides struggling with stubborn landowners, unwilling to sell, and an unforgiving, rough terrain, the battle between them resumes full force. Like revolving magnets, they find themselves drawn to each other one moment and repelled the next. Complicating the situation further is only Caroline knows the secret reason they are purchasing this land.
Set during the exciting Jazz Age, A Return West, explores in vivid detail not only this thrilling decade in American history, but also the journey of those trying for another chance in this suddenly modern, new world.
