Sweet Lullaby

A desperate bargain, an unselfish cowboy, and an unexpected chance at true happiness.

Seduced, abandoned, and left pregnant and unwed, Rebecca finds a new life with Jake, a ranchhand who marries her at the request of her father.

Disowned by her family and facing a harsh frontier, Rebecca agrees to follow Jake west to build an honest partnership from the ground up. In return, he gives her his name and his Texas land, asking for nothing she is not ready to offer.

Her humble new husband treats her with protection, cherishing, and gentle reverence, yet she soon discovers he carries scars deeper than his smallpox marks. As they work side by side to establish a cattle ranch, she begins to realise that Jake has silently loved her for years.

Bound by a marriage in name only, Rebecca and Jake face a frontier that tests the partnership they've built and the feelings he has yet to reveal.
