About the book

Shayla Morrison's mission was to unite a rambunctious baby boy with the rugged cowboy who was his closest kin. But one look at long, tall Turner MacLeod and Shayla decided to stick around. After all, what did a rough-and-tough rancher know about babies? Then again, what did a sensible woman like Shayla know about sharing close quarters with a mysterious Montana man?

THEN COMES MARRIAGE?

Shayla should have hightailed it back to her ho-hum life. Then the sound of a child's laughter—and the sparkle in the cowboy's eyes—had her whistling the wedding march. But could she turn the brooding bachelor into a forever husband?
