The Maverick’s Thanksgiving Family - Melissa Senate

A love worth lassoing!

New-to-town rancher Jake Wiseman is trying to learn from his past romantic mistakes. So when single mum Lauren Dalton and her four-year-old twins barrel into his life, Jake resists his natural impulse to get involved. Still reeling from her divorce, Lauren agrees they should just be ‘friends’. But while Jake tries to go slow, the more time he spends with Lauren and the twins, he can easily see his future: a cosy house, a happy family around the table. Lauren, though, has doubts the bachelor cowboy is really ready for instant fatherhood. Could he be the man she and her girls can count on this Thanksgiving...and forever?

The Cowboy’s Christmas Proposal - Stella Bagwell

From bah humbug... to falling in love?

Jubal Redding is used to keeping to himself — that’s the way he likes it. So when he falls ill just before the holidays, the last thing he wants is a nurse arriving on his doorstep. Even one as beautiful and kind as Rose Wainwright. He tries to fight his feelings, but Jubal can’t help but be instantly captivated by the young newcomer to Stone Creek Ranch. Rose isn’t looking for love as she adjusts to her new lifestyle in Utah, but the grumpy yet tender ranch hand stirs up surprising feelings in her. These opposites starting over together? That might just be the most unexpected Christmas present of all!
