Home on the Ranch: Texas Holiday Dilemma

Book excerpt: A family-style Texas Christmas! Lone Star Christmas by Cathy Gillen Thacker Callie McCabe-Grimes has one thing on her holiday wish list: to make this the best Christmas ever for her little boy. Without including Nash Echols, whose team of lumberjack cowboys is creating a racket at the Christmas tree farm next door. But she has no defense against two determined males when her son decides Nash is the present he wants from Santa! A Cowboy Family Christmas by Judy Duarte Rodeo promoter Drew Madison is at the Rocking Chair Ranch to shine a spotlight on the retired cowboys, but the ranch’s temporary cook, Lainie Montoya, is certainly an added attraction. As Drew works alongside Lainie to support the ranch, the avowed bachelor starts thinking about his future in a whole new way. But Drew doesn’t know about Lainie’s past—yet.
