Here to Stay (Hidden Springs Book 1) by
Sam Mackenzie rode into the town of Hidden Springs looking for a place to belong. He takes a job at Ryan’s Ranch and is immediately attracted to the ranch’s pretty, female, owner.
Kate Ryan is a woman determined to make it on her own. Chafing at the thought of having to hire help, she nonetheless falls for the handsome stranger who answers her ad.
When they meet, sparks fly and they are drawn to each other. But life in 1867 Arizona Territory isn’t easy. When a secret from Kate’s past comes to light, they are each faced with the challenge of making a difficult decision.
Will they turn and run or are they here to stay?

About the author, Kristine Raymond:
Hi, I’m Kristine Raymond. I love to read and that naturally transformed into a love of writing. I have always been a fan of the Old West and lived in Arizona for several years, where I was able to appreciate the beauty and history of the region.
Six books have been released in the Hidden Springs series and I’m currently working on the seventh. When I’m not writing, I enjoy spending time with my husband and furry family.
I am the author of five novels in the Hidden Springs series; Here to Stay, Hearts on Fire, Abby’s Heart, A Chance on Love, A Will of Her Own, and Dancing in the Dark.
I also released my first contemporary novella called By Dawn’s Early Light, which can also be found as part of the When Sparks Fly boxed set. And to add to my ever growing list of titles, I’ve recently published a non-fiction, anecdotal book called ‘write words’ A Year in the Life of an Indie Author, about my adventures since becoming an indie author.
