With only his brothers to assist him in raising his unruly daughter, widower Gideon Hart is realizing they're in need of some feminine influence. He swore he'd never let another woman into his life, but a governess is an employee, not a real woman. Right?
Madeline Sheppard is desperate to protect her little brother from the cruelty of their uncle's guardianship. After fleeing the city and ending up in the tiny town of Autumn Springs, she takes the first decent job she is offered; governess to a precocious little girl. Tucked away at the Double H Ranch might keep her brother safe, but Madeline isn't sure she'll survive working for the world's grumpiest cowboy.
Despite their growing attraction, both keep secrets they dare not share. Can love and faith prevail before ghosts from the past come to take away any chance they have at forever?
This is a sweet, wholesome historical romance with no cliffhangers and a happily-ever-after guaranteed!
