Review: Callie The Long Road Home – Maddie James

Leaving her job behind and heading home to Montana for a family emergency is worrisome enough, but when Callie McKenna’s New York future collides head-on with her Montana past, she is faced with making a life-altering decision.
****
Callie McKenna is going home. Her father has suffered a fall from his horse and she is needed back at the ranch. She temporarily leaves New York and her promotion behind to be with her family in Montana, planning only to stay until her father is well again.

But she doesn’t expect the worse, and Callie loses her father. Nor does she expect to rekindle an old relationship with ranch hand, Murphy Reynolds.

Nothing goes according to plan. Callie must face her past, to not only mend some family fences, but to figure out what is happening between her and Murphy. She knows the choices she makes now will shape her future. But will that future be with Murphy and her family on the ranch, or will it be back in New York, where her promotion waits along with that quaint little brownstone she adores?

Reviewer’s Thoughts

I loved this story from beginning to end. Callie has moved to the big city and is enjoying her new life it has been years since she last visited home. She gets a call from her family saying that her dad has suffered a fall from his horse so she drops her life and heads home to Montana to help out until her father is feeling better. She hasn’t seen Murphy for ten years and it did not end well then so the tension from the past and present colliding while she is visiting have her second guessing where she truly belongs.
