Once Upon A Cowboy

Will this single dad cowboy get the happily-ever-after he never thought possible? When Belle Langfords moves to Pyrite Falls, Oregon, to take a job as a live-in housekeeper and nanny, she’s ready for a new start. Shutting down her grandmother’s beloved bookstore had been devastating, but she’s hopeful that the three motherless young children she’ll be taking care of will ease that pain. The only challenge? When Belle arrives at her new employer’s house, the brooding cowboy has no idea who she is or what she’s doing there. Adam Winchester knows exactly who to blame for Belle turning up on his doorstep out of the blue — his kindhearted former mother-in-law is playing fairy godmother. Adam is convinced he doesn’t need Belle in his life, but when he agrees to let her stay for a month, the transformation he sees in his children tells a different story. As does his entirely inappropriate, but impossible to ignore, physical attraction! For Adam knows that Belle couldn’t be more off-limits — all he can offer her is nights in his bed — but it’s clear that Belle deserves the whole fairy tale...

Cinderella's fairy godmother just turned hot. And male. Very, very male. My three priorities in life have always been: the horse ranch I manage with my brothers, my family, and my best friend, Sophie West. Sophie is the ranch’s horse trainer—or as we call her, our horse whisper. She’s hot as hell, but mixing business with pleasure never ends well. Been there. Done that. Had it branded on my ass. But apparently Sophie’s biological clock is ticking. She’s let it slip that she’s ready to find her soul mate or at least a nice man. The first problem? She’s socially awkward around any guy she’s interested in. The second problem? If she doesn’t find her true love in town, our ranch could lose the best damn horse trainer around. Problem number three? She wants me to be her “fairy godfather” and help her become more confident. We’re talking lessons on kissing and clothing-optional activities so that she can ask out the new vet in town. Which is problem number four—and the biggest issue of all. I want to be her Prince Charming. But I’m going to have to put my heart on the line to win hers. Once Upon a Cowboy is a standalone romance. All the books in the series can be read in any order.

A Confederate scout and spy from Virginia, Jack left for Texas within weeks of Lee’s surrender at Appomattox. In Texas, he became first a cowboy and then a trail boss, jobs that would inform the rest of his life. Jack lead cattle on the Chisholm and Goodnight-Loving trails to New Mexico, California, Kansas and Nebraska.
