This short novella achieves the impossible; a complete and satisfying story in a few pages. Maureen O'Rourke and her two children spent their second winter in an abandoned cabin in the Colorado mountains in 1884. At first, Maureen expected someone to reclaim their home. But no one came to reclaim it, and Maureen's family settled in and called it home.
Gabe came riding in during a terrible snowstorm and told Maureen that the land and cabin were his. However, he is upset with Maureen because she stole something from Gabe -- his son. This is a different story. I hate to say too much more because the story, as it evolves, is lovely.
