Books like To claim a wife by Susan Fox

Caitlin Bodine has always lived on the edge of her family’s ranch, her spirit as untamed as the open plains. After a tragic accident that claimed her brother’s life, she left in shame, only to return years later to confront the past she fled. Reno Duvall, the family patriarch, has never forgiven her for his brother’s death and watches her with a mix of anger and unresolved longing. The arrival of her cousin Maddie only deepens his suspicion, but as the dust settles, Reno finds himself drawn to the very woman who has eluded his affection. Set against the backdrop of ranch life and the quiet hardships of a small community, these characters must navigate grief, grief at a sudden revelation, and the possibility of forgiveness. "To Claim a Wife" captures the raw, heartfelt drama of two people learning to claim one another amidst the scars of their shared past.
