River Ranch

Billionaires, cowboys, and romance collide during the holidays in this next book in the River Ranch series! It's the most wonderful time of the year at the Ford family ranch. Will one cowboy's homecoming be the greatest gift of all? He left town and never looked back. Cody Ford is a Wall Street honcho with humble Texas roots. This holiday season, he'd be content to just stay in New York and not face his family-and dodge their questions about when and with whom he plans to settle down...and if he will do so back at home. But his father isn't getting any younger, and Cody doesn't want to miss any last chances to see him and the rest of the folks back on the ranch. The last person Cody was expecting to see? His one-time girlfriend, Lexi Murphy, who's been working as his dad's new live-in nurse. She never forgot him. Can she ever forgive him? Lexi still holds a grudge against Cody. Back then, the college-bound heartthrob believed he was too good for a small-town girl like Lexi. But now Cody can't help but see her in a whole new light. Could it be that this beautiful single mother with an unbeatable can-do spirit is the one he's been waiting for all along? That depends on whether Cody can prove to Lexi that, this time, he means business-and if a sudden snowstorm can lend just the right amount of Christmas magic to help move things along...

The Ford family's eldest daughter returns to the ranch with nothing left to lose-except her heart... HOME IS WHERE... Angelina Ford is heading back to Texas hiding the biggest secret of her life: bankruptcy. The business she created in L.A. is shuttered, as are her hopes and dreams. Facing her family with her big, bad news isn't going to be easy. Which is why bumping into Logan Brody is an unexpected gift. Instead of facing her failure, and future, she can play catch-up with her old childhood friend...who happens to have grown up to be a strong, gorgeous man. ...THE HOPE IS Logan was always a responsible boy. It's no surprise that the brawny ex-soldier has decided to return from active duty to run his family's ranch. Still, Angelina can't help noticing the changes in Logan, from the haunted look in his eyes to the retired military dog who never leaves his side. He puts up a good front, acting as Texas-tough as can be. But, Logan is carrying a secret of his own-one that could bring him closer than ever to his tried-and-true Angelina...or tear them both apart.
