Publisher Description
A small-town Texas sheriff gets wrapped up in love with a beautiful B&B owner in this heartwarming holiday romance by a New York Times bestseller.
The little town of Branding Iron, Texas, keeps an annual tradition that makes the holidays especially festive—the Cowboys’ Christmas Ball. But Sheriff Ben Marsden, busy with work, joint custody of his son, and caring for his aging mother, has no plans to attend. Not until a pretty newcomer to his small town gets involved in the planning. Suddenly Ben finds himself wanting to keep a close eye on Jessica Ramsey, and not just because her relatives seem to be in jail more than out. He can tell the mysterious redhead has secrets in her past, but now that she’s bought a little fixer upper with her mom to start a bed and breakfast, the whole family’s turning over a new leaf. With the prospect of dancing and celebrating ahead, surely there’s time for everyone to unwind. Because this year, more than ever, Ben’s got Christmas—and loving—on his mind.

Lovely
Sheriff Ben isn’t looking for love. He just wants to take care of his son as often as he is allowed to get him after his messy divorce and protect the people of Branding Iron Texas. Jess is just hoping to find her birth mother in this small Texas town and escape a painful past. But when her car breaks down and this sexy sheriff comes to her rescue what is a girl supposed to do? Many beloved characters from some of her other books make this feel like you are reconnecting with old friends.
Loved it. A little suspense and enough tension to make this really enjoyable.
