"Touching tale, amazing characters, sooo many emotions...I can't get enough." Five-star Goodreads Review (Laura C) on A Rogue Cowboy's Christmas Surprise<br><br>

To protect her daughter, a single mom must hide out at the ranch of Jacob Hart, a reclusive loner who doesn't like people, chaos, or anyone in his space. What better place for a single mom, her sassy six-year-old, and their rambunctious puppy to spend a few days? Healing, hearts, horses, and smexy times abound!<br><br>

Due to his traumatic past, billionaire rancher Jacob Hart keeps everyone at a distance, even his family. He finds solace only in helping the horses he rescues, who ask him for nothing. But when his brother needs him to house a single mom and her daughter, he's willing to do whatever it takes to protect a child in danger. <br><br>

When Phoebe Sheriden meets the handsome, reclusive rancher in charge of guarding her and her daughter, a spark ignites inside her heart the moment the muscular, moody cowboy goes gently to his knees to make sure her daughter feels safe. <br><br>

Neither Jacob nor Phoebe is ready to open their heart, but the close quarters and high stakes unlock secrets, passion, and even long-forgotten laughter. As emotional and sexual tensions rise, the two vulnerable souls soon find themselves forced to make an impossible choice between love and survival.<br><br>
