Breaking up with Alex Duvall was not on Kyla DeKane's agenda, and now her future dreams are dashed. On the heels of that, she must deal with the unexpected appearance of her biological father, leaving her bursting with questions regarding his seventeen year absence. Needing a job, Kyla takes a temporary position as nanny for Professor David Grant's two young boys at Wynnbury House, his mansion on the backwaters of the Mississippi.

A Cowboy's Christmas Promise
Author: Maggie McGinnis
Publisher: Loveswept
ISBN: 0553394568
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
In a captivating novel spiced with holiday magic—perfect for fans of Rachel Gibson, Susan Mallery, and Molly O’Keefe—a rugged Montana man mends a Northeast girl’s jaded heart. Boston veterinarian Hayley Scampini tends the city’s pampered pets but dreams of the rural life of a country vet. She’s single and determined to stay that way, convinced that love isn’t permanent enough to trust. Then a vacation to the Whisper Creek dude ranch introduces her to Daniel McKee, a sexy single dad who runs the kind of veterinary practice she aspires to—and rattles her conviction to keep men at a distance. Managing a thriving practice, coping with the loss of his wife, and fighting a custody battle with his in-laws over his twin daughters, Daniel couldn’t be more overwhelmed. Hayley is a godsend, accompanying him in the field and winning over his girls. It doesn’t take Daniel long to realize he’s falling for this woman, hard and fast. So before Hayley returns to Boston, he extracts a promise: that she will return to Whisper Creek for Christmas. It’s the perfect time and place to show Hayley that the promise of a beautiful life together is something she can believe in. Maggie McGinnis’s sweetly sensual Whisper Creek novels can be read together or separately: ACCIDENTAL COWGIRL | A COWBOY’S CHRISTMAS PROMISE | ONCE UPON A COWBOY | UNLUCKY IN LOVE | MEANT TO BE | TAKING A CHANCE Praise for A Cowboy’s Christmas Promise “Witty dialogue, a heartwarming story, and a hero I’d like to take home with me combine for a compelling and enjoyable read.

I truly loved this story and will seek out others by this talented author.”—Fresh Fiction “I found myself drawn into the book by McGinnis’s humor and her talent at creating real characters I could empathize with. I also identified with the warmth of the circle of three friends.”—Idaho Statesman Includes an excerpt from another Loveswept title.

Aided by a haunted young City medic, the descendents of an ancient warrior tribe fight for—their freedom. Brenna's new duties as a Clinic medic include monitoring the health of political prisoners after they've been interrogated.

But Brenna finds herself deeply conflicted by her first patient, Jesstin, a wild and rebellious warrior reputed to be descended from ancient Amazons. Through Jess, she learns of another way of life in the Amazon village of Tristaine, where freedom and passion are prized more highly than political power. As Caster's methods grow increasingly brutal, Brenna fears for Jess's life, and struggles with the deepening bond between them. Soon she faces a critical choice, and a harrowing fight for survival.
