A cowboy contractor, his ex-wife, and the son he never knew he had…

In this heartwarming tale of love, loss, and redemption, Kate Donnely is forced to face the consequences of her past actions. After keeping her son Reid's existence a secret from his father, Brett Murphy, for seven years, she embarks on a journey to reunite them.

Driving down a dusty road to Three Rivers Ranch, where Brett is rumored to be working, Kate's emotions threaten to overpower her as she struggles to find the courage to tell Brett the truth.

Upon arriving at the ranch, Kate finally comes face-to-face with Brett, the man she had married just before his deployment to Afghanistan. He thought they were divorced.

He was wrong.

As she introduces him to Reid, their vibrant seven-year-old son, she is met with anger and disbelief. Despite his initial shock, Brett refuses to let Kate take their son away, insisting that Reid deserves to have a father in his life.

He convinces Kate to stay in Three Rivers for the summer so they can have a second chance at building the family he didn’t know he had. He still loves her, and he adores being a father—but he has to find a way toward forgiveness.

Oh, and he’s still active in the Army and could be called up at any time.

Will their love be enough to heal the wounds they've inflicted on one another? Or will they allow the bitterness of their past to tear their family apart forever?

This gripping romance is a testament to the power of forgiveness and the unbreakable bond between a parent and child. With its vivid portrayal of the emotional turmoil that comes with love, loss, and second chances, readers will be captivated by this story of two broken hearts mending together. Dive into this emotional journey of love and rediscovery that will leave you yearning for a love as resilient as Kate and Brett's.

I have been binge reading lots of Liz Isaacson's books from my ebook library. I love her stories. Some of them I'm reading fr the second time and enjoying them immensely.
This story was so very compelling as Kate finally caught up with her estranged husband to reveal a secret . I love all of the characters on the ranch which seems to be a place of healing and comfort. I thoroughly enjoyed this story.

Reading the 3 books so far has been exciting. This one was the best of the 3. As I read them, I feel like I am there, I felt the pain Squire, Pete and Brett went through, when Squire tank got hit. Finding love but with the back flashes, they turned to church and find GOD along with answers on how to love. Finding their mate, having a ranch family.
This is another series of I feel like I am on a wonderful vacation and felling all the emotions, love and how great our God is.

How have I not read anything by Liz Isaacson before now? Yikes! I have a lot of reading to catch up.:)

I don’t typically choose to read books where the characters are married, but the cover spoke to me and the blurb intrigued. I didn’t like Kate in the beginning. Never really got her. Like why she asked Brett for a divorce. Why she chose to stay silent about Reid. Why she stuck around and took abuse from a patronizing mother. I mean, she was an adult, why didn’t she just take her son and live on her own? I didn’t understand some of her choices, especially toward the end.

“Kate felt utterly alone, like she was the only woman stupid enough to make such colossal mistakes.”

Yep. We’ve all been there, haven’t we? So, Kate’s love and devotion to her son, Reid, and her willingness to take a job and stay on the ranch just so Brett could get to know Reid, redeemed her. Brett, on the other hand…

“She’d loved the danger in his eyes. The years had changed him, and though his eyes were still pools of ebony, they held more wisdom now. The same passion, but curbed with patience and maturity.”

He’s been through three deployments already, suffers from PTSD and a fear of sand. Horses calm him, and he’s found a sense of peace at Three Rivers Ranch. When Kate shows up and shatters his balance, I couldn’t blame him for wrestling with forgiveness. Even so, he’s kind and sweet and really good with Reid. What a hero! Especially when he…yikes, I can’t give that away! You’ll have to read the book.:)

I appreciated the insight from the letters and emails, but toward the end, I felt like they took over the story. The faith thread was subtle, not overpowering or preachy, and the romance the perfect balance of speak and sizzle. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed Fourth and Long. Now, I’m off to find more romances in the Three Rivers Ranch series!

“The Lord speaks to each of us differently,” he said.

“Does He?” She wished her voice didn’t sound quite so desperate, quite so unsure. But she wasn’t sure God heard or answered her prayers.

I love this book, the characters are so real- the way Liz has developed their story is really wonderful. She has a real gift for telling stories that speak to your heart, intrigue you to keep reading. So, far I haven’t been disappointed with any of her books, her characters all mesh together from book to book. Making you want to find out more about how their stories & lives mesh together to become a much bigger family. Proving once again that with God in your life all things are possible.
I’m going to recommend to my friend Mary that she read Liz Isaacson’s books - I know she will enjoy all of them, just as I have enjoyed them.

Commander Brett Murphy is working at Three Rivers Ranch when his ex-wife, Kate Donnely shows up and tells him he has a 7 year old son. She also tells him they are still married. He wants to try again and remain in his son’s life, but they must overcome issues of trust and past hurts, and in the middle he is recalled and deployed. A tenderhearted story and a must read.

It isn't easy being military nor the spouse left behind. My heart hurt for both Brett and Kate in this story. I'm glad God was reconnected with, truth and forgiveness won out, and my necessary happy ending were all there.

I have never heard of this Author. I usually like Francine Rivers, Tessa Asfah and others like that. I watched Heartland on Netflix. I searched for TV programs like that and Liz Issacson came up. I love horses from that program. I read the first three books, than bought the others. I love her writing style, it is clean, and I love the way Yehovah is the centre of all the people involved.

Reviewed in Australia on September 1, 2017

Loved it. I've enjoyed all of the series so far, but I particularly liked the letters/emails throughout - even though they often wouldn't be my thing at all. Clean and well-written, I recommend this book (and the series) as stories that draw you in to the characters' lives. The books are stand-alone but share characters from other books in the series - so reading in order is helpful but in no way essential.

Loved this book. Really well written and an easy inspirational read. I am an o.a.p.but still found it uplifting and informative. I am also British so enjoyed seeing things through an American's eyes. Keep up the good work. I look forward to reading many more of your stories.

A story of young love, "married in haste", misunderstanding, an eight year separation, introduction of a seven year old son to a father who didn't know of his existence, and lots of need of forgiveness and understanding. All wrapped up with my favorite ending of happy ever after.
