Mary Catherine Sterling loves her American cowboy, Cappy, her sprawling cattle ranch, and her West Texas wildflowers. She also loves Haddington Moor, her birthright and family’s cattle farm in faraway Scotland.
Leaving for America’s shores never came easy. In 1945, when Cappy proposed marriage, she hoped to glimpse the old farm one last time but war has a way of rushing young lovers into hasty decisions and Haddington Moor is never to be glimpsed again. It was Cappy’s two promises that enticed her to leave Scotland on such short notice.
Then, the day arrives when she learns the mad cow epidemic has wiped out Haddington Moor’s livestock and thrown the family farm into receivership. Worse, news of the farm’s ill fortunes arrive on the same day she discovers a lingering illness has turned terminal. Now, with all these revelations weighing heavily on his conscience, Cappy must decide how best to fulfill the second promise he made but never kept, before time runs out. . . .
