At a magical time of year…
Can a cowboy help falling in love?
For single dad Owen Caufield, living and working at Sweetheart Ranch for a month is the perfect change of pace. While the cowboy turned wedding officiant can now spend more time with his children, Molly O’Malley, his new boss, is less thrilled. A wedding ranch isn’t the best place for three rambunctious youngsters. But amid the chaos—and the coming holidays—it may be the best place to fall in love…
A little girl no older than three burst into the parlor at the
exact moment Molly entered from the kitchen. She was quickly followed by a boy
of possibly five. Hair disheveled, cheeks flushed and clothing askew, the pair
skidded to a halt and stared at her.
“Oh.” Molly stared back. “Who are you?”
The next instant, the boy reached out with both arms and shoved
the girl from behind. She tumbled face-first to the floor, landing half on and
half off the braided rug. Instantly, a high-pitched wail filled the room. The
boy, her brother given their resemblance, simply stood there, his expression a
combination of victory, contrition and dread.
Molly started forward. She didn’t have a lot of experience with
kids, but she could tell the girl wasn’t hurt. Not really. A bruised knee,
perhaps. Molly and her sister had regularly engaged in these types of scuffles
during their childhood.
“Are you okay?”
She was halfway to the girl when the arched doorway separating the
parlor from the foyer and the chapel was filled by a pair of broad shoulders, a
tall lanky form and a dark brown Stetson.
Molly came to a halt. She’d seen plenty of attractive cowboys
since moving to Mustang Valley, but this one in his pressed jeans and
Western-cut suede coat rated right up there. The fact that he balanced a third
child in his left arm, this one a toddler, diminished none of his good looks.
Assuming they’d arrived early, Molly produced a smile and said,
“I’m sorry. The open house doesn’t start until noon.”
“Actually...” He bent and assisted the little girl to her feet,
restraining her when she would have shoved her brother in retaliation. “I’m
Owen Caufield. And you must be Molly O’Malley, right?”
His name didn’t ring any bells. “Am I expecting you?”
“You are.” An appealing grin tugged at the corners of his mouth.
She grew suddenly tense. Something told her that she was in for a
surprise and not the happy kind.
“I’m your substitute minister. Homer Foxworthy’s
my great-uncle.” Owen set the toddler down to join her siblings. “I’m staying
here for the next month, through Christmas, while he and your grandmother are
on their trip. Along with my kids.”
She stared at him, every particle of her being
resisting. Please, someone tell her this wasn’t happening.
