Love comes home for the holidays

A Lawman’s Christmas

The sudden death of the town marshal leaves Blue River, Texas, without a lawman…and twenty-five-year-old Dara Rose Nolan without a husband. Now as winter approaches and her meager seamstress income dwindles, she doesn’t have many options options. Unfortunately, she must decide — soon — because there’s a new marshal in town, and she’s living under his roof.

Clay McKettrick plans to start a ranch and finally settle down. He isn’t interested in uprooting Dara Rose and her children, but he is interested in giving her friendship and — if she’ll let him — passion. And when they say ‘I do’ to a marriage of convenience, the temporary lawman’s Christmas wish is to make Dara Rose his wife for good…

An Outlaw’s Christmas

With his wild heart, Sawyer McKettrick isn’t ready to settle down on the family ranch. So he heads to Blue River, Texas, to seek a job as marshal. But in a blinding snowstorm he’s injured — and collapses into the arms of a prim and proper lady.

The shirtless, bandaged stranger recuperating in teacher Piper St. James’s room behind the schoolhouse says he’s a McKettrick, but he looks like an outlaw to her. As they wait out the storm, the handsome loner has Piper remembering long-ago dreams of marriage and motherhood. But for how long is Sawyer willing to call Blue River home? As the gray skies clear, Piper’s one holiday wish just might bring two lonely hearts together forever.
