A Dogtown Christmas

In the wilds of Colorado, one Christmas changes everything.

In 1912, spirited Priscilla Cochran is determined to prove she’s a capable, independent woman. Leaving her comfortable life in Oklahoma, she travels to rugged Dogtown, Colorado, to become the town’s new schoolteacher—after assuring the hiring committee she’s a “woman of mature years.”

Mitch Beaumont, Dogtown’s hardworking councilman and widowed father, is weary of flighty young teachers who flee at the first sign of hardship. When twenty-year-old Priscilla steps off the stagecoach—and straight into the mud at his feet—he knows trouble has arrived wrapped in petticoats and big ideas.

But as Christmas approaches and Priscilla wins over Dogtown’s children—and Mitch’s skeptical heart—sparks fly between the independent young teacher and the gruff gunsmith who vowed never to love again.
