Northwind Virginia Andersen

When her sister, Shannon, was killed in a sudden and tragic accident, Courtney rushed to the North Dakota ranch to help the grieving family. Shannon and her husband, Adam, were living in a large historic ranch house named Northwind. The US Government had bought the property and built a nuclear missile storage site on it. With the Cold War over, the government assigned Adam the task of dismantling the site. Their four-year-old daughter, Megan, loved to ride horseback with her mother and couldn't understand why her mother didn't come home from her recent ride. From her upstairs bedroom window at Northwind, Courtney could see the small stone house in the distance. The town gossips described the handsome, dark man who lived there as a wife-beater with a mysterious, violent past and advised Courtney to stay away from him. Her life took a desperate turn when she found herself falling deeply in love with him.
