Stand-In Texas Dad - Cathy Gillen Thacker

Paediatrician Zach McCabe is Laramie Texas's very own Sir Galahad — with cardiologist Claire Lowell being the latest damsel on his To-Rescue list. Even so, after losing his fiancé in a car crash, Zach has sworn off love. And maintaining his emotional distance from the elegant single mum may be tougher than wrangling her adorable three-year-old triplets.

Claire refuses to rely on anyone, but resting her burdens on Zach's broad shoulders is a dangerous temptation. When her nanny leaves her in the lurch and Zach is evicted from his place, the two find a way to help each other — and grow closer. Can Zach move past his grief for a second chance at love...and an instant family?

Seeking refuge from fame and a painful past, Gable finds Brooke is just the balm he needs. As their budding attraction blossoms, the music industry he's trying to avoid threatens to reclaim Gable. And Brooke would rather head out of town than feel the sting of that loss. As they're pulled down separate paths, will Brooke and Gable discover that, sometimes, home is a place found in each other?
