Hope Deferred

Leah Edwards is on her way to deliver her nephew, who she all but raised, to his father when the father suddently takes a job in Alaska. Then the wrong turn on a road leads her to Rigsby, Wyoming where she takes a job at the only cafe in fifty or more square miles. The cafe is where everyone meets to talk and hear the latest news. It is there she meets Chase Monroe, a rancher, who she thinks leers at what some men think she has to offer. Instead he is entranced. He does become acquainted with her nephew and by that to Leah, though she remains standoffish. How much will Chase have to do to prove to the lady he wants her for herself and that her curves are simply a bonus to him? A bonus is another love story about a Native American Rancher, Lance, and, a friend of Gage's, Caroline, the daughter of an ex-politician who doesn't approve of minorities.
