A Gift for the Rancher

Book excerpt: Find your Happily Ever After with two feel-good stories of dogs unleashing romance in small-town settings. FAMILY BY CHANCE The Rancher’s Expectant Christmas by Karen Templeton Deanna Blake is stunned when she inherits half of her estranged father’s ranch—and the other half goes to her former crush, Josh Talbot. The single mom-to-be intends to sell her share. But Josh can’t afford to buy her out, and if they sell, he and his son will have to start over. As Dee warms to their friendship, he begins to wonder if maybe they should keep it all in the family. The Rancher’s Miracle Baby by April Arrington Rancher Alex Weston had given up on ever having a family of his own. But when a tornado blows barrel racer Tammy Jenkins and a newly orphaned baby into his life, his home is suddenly brightened by laughter, warmth and Tammy’s graceful beauty. As much as his heart aches for more, Alex knows this is a temporary arrangement. Baby Brody needs a real family—something Tammy deserves, too. But can Alex let them go?
