From Hollywood…
A cattle ranch is the perfect place for movie star Sophia Jackson to escape her scandalous past and the paparazzi hot on her trail. But foreman Travis Palmer makes it clear who’s running the ranch. When their constant clashing ignites unexpected attraction, Sophia takes on her greatest acting role: pretending she isn’t falling for the sexy, domineering cowboy.
…to Motherhood
Once Travis sweeps her into his arms at her sister’s wedding, she knows the feeling’s mutual. But a precious secret followed Sophia west. And now a Hollywood hurricane is about to blow through Travis’s peaceful Texas town. Is the mother-to-be ready to fight for her future and see her most passionate Christmas wish granted—she and Travis vowing to love each other forever?
“You have to get the groceries for me.”
“Nope. It’s May.” He stuck his hat on, so his hands were free to pick up his second boot and shake the cell phone out of it.
“It’s May? What kind of answer is that? Do you fast in May or do a colon cleanse or something?”
He looked up at her joke, but his grin died before it started. Judging by the look on her face, she wasn’t joking. “The River Mack rounds up in May.”
She looked at him, waiting. He realized a woman from Hollywood probably had no idea what that meant.
“We’re busy. We’re branding. We have to keep an eye on the late calving, the bulls—”
He stopped himself. He wasn’t going to explain the rest. Managing a herd was a constant, complex operation.
Sophia flapped one hand toward the kitchen behind her. “I have nothing to eat. You have to help me.”
He stomped into his second boot. “Not unless you’re a pregnant or nursing cow.”
At her gasp, he did laugh. “I keep every beast on this ranch fed, but you, ma’am, are not a beast. You’re a movie star, a woman who can take care of herself, and you’re not my problem.”
She looked absolutely stricken. Had he been so harsh? “Listen, if I’m going toward town, I don’t mind picking you up a gallon of milk. That’s just common courtesy. I expect you to do the same for me.”
“I can’t leave the ranch.”
“Neither can I. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a barn full of animals to feed before I can feed myself.”
