Karl was not interested in marriage - he enjoyed his freedom as a bachelor. Sure all the other cowboys on the ranch were now happily married, but that didn't mean he had to join them.

When he discovered, without his knowledge or consent, his brother had arranged a proxy marriage for him anyway, Karl was furious. And he was ready to send the fiery redhead back to where she came from the moment she set foot in Halliwell.

But when push came to shove, could he do it? What was the pretty young woman running from anyway?

Author's Promise: This is a heartwarming historical novella with a happy ever after ending and no cliffhangers. It is a clean and wholesome story with nothing more than hugs, kisses, and holding hands.
