What happens when a single mom falls for the best friend of the brother who doesn't know she exists? An unexpectedly delightful cowboy holiday romance. ★★★★ "Where do I even start with how much I enjoyed this book? It was funny and sexy and I couldn't stop reading it once I started!!!! …a BEAUTIFUL love story." ~Janet W. (Five-star Amazon Review) When Sheriff Dane Wilson rescues a sassy, single mom and her daughter on a runaway Christmas hayride, he falls hard for the irreverent duo. But when Dane discovers the spunky school teacher has a secret connection to his best friend, his protective nature kicks in. After a wintry first kiss raises the stakes, Dane has to decide whose side he's on. Only a deathbed promise would send Jaimi Hamilton to Rogue Valley for Christmas to track down her brothers, the nine Stockton cowboys who don't know about her. She has no intention of actually introducing herself to them…but her irreverent daughter and a too-sexy-for-his-own-good sheriff have other plans.
