Stanley Ranch
(2026)(The seventh book in the Cowboys of Sunset Springs series)
A novel by Kimberly Smith
At Stanley Ranch, love doesn’t arrive quietly. It comes with second chances, old secrets, unexpected family, and healing that changes everything.
As spring turns to summer in Sunset Springs, the people of Stanley Ranch are building more than businesses, homes, and futures - they’re building a family. Luke and Edye Stanley are finally within reach of making their love official in the most important way possible: adopting Nia and Malik, the two children who have already claimed their hearts. But as the paperwork moves forward, the woman who made it possible - Loretta Brooks - begins to fade, and joy becomes tangled with the grief of knowing time is running short.
Around them, life at the ranch refuses to stand still.
Mari and Dwight are finding their way through a long-awaited second chance at love while facing a life-changing surprise neither of them planned. Cody and Sierra are building a new future together in marriage, business, and family, even as old family truths rise to the surface. Wyatt and LaRiah and Brad and Amy are learning the sleepless, sacred joys of new parenthood. Travis and Francina are discovering that love can be steady, patient, and worth the risk. And far from Texas, Rose and Eli must decide what matters more - old dreams or the life they’ve built together.
Through baby showers, homecomings, Easter celebrations, funerals, adoption hearings, and the everyday chaos of ranch life, Stanley Ranch becomes the place where broken people are made whole, lonely hearts are folded into family, and love keeps showing up at exactly the right time.
Heartfelt, emotional, and deeply rooted in small-town Texas life, this contemporary western romance family saga is filled with:
