Red Gate Farm

A heartwarming tale of second chances and the healing power of coming home.
A spirited rancher and a country boy returning home find themselves tangled in horses, government notices, and a little lakeside magic-where second chances bloom and love trots in on four hooves.
Nestled in the countryside on the outskirts of Lake Unami, Little Flower Ranch is more than just a patch of land-it's Addie Martin's whole world. Her dogs, goats, and horses, both rescued and boarded, know her better than most people do. A life built with grit and rooted in compassion. Until Addie's peaceful life is thrown into turmoil by a man from her past, with a government notice that threatens to take it all away.
Henry Price never planned to come back to Red Gate Farm, but after losing his job and his sense of purpose, the old homestead near Lake Unami calls him back to the place where he grew up surrounded by love and family. But the simpler life may not be so simple when your family introduces you to a woman who has troubles of her own.
Lake Unami has its own quiet magic, the kind that works through neighbors, animals, and special guardians. As Addie and Henry navigate old wounds and new beginnings, they'll discover that sometimes the smallest towns hold the biggest miracles... especially when it comes to matters of the heart.
A Lake Unami Story.
