      Catching His Heart

      Olivia Franklin suspected coming home to Jasper Gulch would mean eventually running into her first love, Jack McGuire. But she’s adamant that she not repeat the mistakes that led to her broken heart. Yet from the moment she lays eyes on her former sweetheart, her resistance begins to crumble. The tall, handsome rancher made his choice all those years ago. He’d gone from the baseball diamond to a high-rise office and finally back home to the Double M—all without her. And no amount of centennial nostalgia can change the past. But the future is another story, and the pretty historian is about to get a lesson in romance from the lonesome cowboy she will never forget!

      Big Sky Centennial: A small town rich in history…and love.

      Batter up!

      The Jasper Gulch Centennial Committee

      Invites You to Join In

      Some Old-Fashioned Fun

      as We Welcome Back Our Hometown Heroes for

      an Old Timers’ Baseball Game…

      Montana Style!

      There’s nothing like baseball in Montana.

      Is it the fresh mountain air? The cowboy mentality?

      No one knows for certain. But it’s no wonder the

      Jasper Gulch Old Timers have captured our hearts!

      And no two hearts could be more entwined than

      Livvie Franklin’s and Jack McGuire’s. Though it’s been eight years since these former high school sweethearts have laid eyes on each other, something tells us Livvie

      has never gotten over her Jasper Gulch all-star.

      Can the centennial celebration help them turn back time? Join us in the bleachers as we root them on!

      RUTH LOGAN HERNE

      Born into poverty, Ruth puts great stock in one of her favorite Ben Franklinisms: “Having been poor is no shame. Being ashamed of it is.” With God-given appreciation for the amazing opportunities abounding in our land, Ruth finds simple gifts in the everyday blessings of smudge-faced small children, bright flowers, freshly baked goods, good friends, family, puppies and higher education. She believes a good woman should never fear dirt, snakes or spiders, all of which like to infest her aged farmhouse, necessitating a good pair of tongs for extracting the snakes, a flat-bottomed shoe for the spiders, and for the dirt…

      Simply put, she’s learned that some things aren’t worth fretting about! If you laugh in the face of dust and love to talk about God, men, romance, great shoes and wonderful food, feel free to contact Ruth through her website, www.ruthloganherne.com.

      To my beloved father-in-law, Floyd “Sonny” Blodgett, a gentle man of few words and a loving heart. Dad suffered through the years of Alzheimer’s slow decline with his family surrounding him. Dad, your example of handling whatever came your way has passed on through multiple generations. God truly blessed us with your kind, quiet presence. May you rest in the peace and light of God’s eternal love.
