The Rancher's Mistletoe Bride

By Jill Kemerer

Description:

Wedding planner Lexi Harrington needs a manager for her inherited Wyoming ranch. Clint Romine is the perfect man for the job, but the ruggedly handsome cowboy soon presents a new dilemma—distraction. Lexi can't fall for a small-town rancher when she's planning to return to her big-city career after the holidays. Home has always been elusive for former foster kid Clint. Working alongside Lexi at Rock Step Ranch feels too cozy—and too risky. Opening up to her means revealing a secret about his past that could jeopardize everything he holds dear. This Christmas, can Clint learn to trust Lexi with the truth…and with his heart?

Why the author wrote this book:

The hero, Clint, came to me one day, and I sympathized with this man who'd grown up without love or a family. He couldn't count on people to come through for him, so he relied on himself--and messed up big time. This book begins years after his mistake, and he struggles to believe he's worthy of love...until Lexi shows him what love really is.
