An ad placed by a 37 year old man seeking a loving woman
to share his life
at his ranch, catches Cherilyn Bixby's attention. No
longer having any ties, the
sensible and pretty schoolteacher wants to have something
of her own which
this sensible Texas rancher might give to her. With her
pureblooded Maine
Coon cat, Arabella (straight from New England) in hand,
she's still four hours
later in the rain waiting for Cole Witherspoon to show up.
By the time Cole shows to collect her, the cat is an
immediate issue and an
ultimatum by Cherilyn that the cat stays in the house, or
she will return back
across Texas. Taking care of the household, consisting of
Uncle Abe, nephew
Nate and brother Davis, cooking and caring for these men
completes "Cherry"
until Arabella is in jeopardy. Choosing between a stable
life with love and
losing Arabella, the only family she knows, this rancher
is about to find out
what this gritty woman is made of when the fur flies.
This cute little Santa Rita series short story
about a headstrong woman and
a stubborn man learning to compromise to achieve the
dreams they each
have, is heartwarming. Never underestimate this
schoolteacher and her love
for her animal. Complete with humor, emotion and genuine
caring, you can't
help but enjoy HELP WANTED: WIFE
When practical-minded rancher Cole Witherspoon decides his
ranch needs a woman's touch, he goes about filling the
vacancy in the most sensible way. He places a help-wanted
ad. He never suspects just how many lessons he'll learn
when
an out-of-work schoolteacher answers the ad.
Cherilyn Bixby is a sensible person, capable around the
house, and pretty, but she makes the mistake of wearing
her
best dress to meet Cole--and his huge, undisciplined dog.
She's not overly fond of dogs, nor is her big, red cat. A
cat that will not be living in the barn, no matter what
Cole
says.
Romance is definitely in the air, but when the fur flies,
Cherilyn sticks to her guns, and Cole must decide if his
future just might be held in the tufted paws of Cherilyn's
beloved feline friend.
