Romance Holiday
Holiday stories are always a welcome addition to even a very
busy life. Perhaps it's because they provide a welcome
pause in a hectic schedule, but I think it's due to their
very nature of good spirit and family. It doesn't really
matter what holiday you celebrate; the spirit is universal.
And spending a holiday with RaeAnne Thayne is the stuff of
magic and miracles. In THE RANCHERS CHRISTMAS SONG we are back in Idaho
revisiting some old friends, getting better acquainted with
some and meeting new one. Ranching towns are rather
notorious their close-knit community. Being a good neighbor
is welcome and candidly expected. When Ella Baker returned to her father Curt's ranch, Bakers
Dozen, she didn't really have ranching on her mind. Her
attention at this point was helping her dad manage his ever
increasing difficulty with Parkinson disease. So much he
could no longer do. So many things Ella would like to help
with but as far as the ranch was concerned her dad has
always kept Ella at arm's length. Ella was determined to get her father to see her value not
only to him personally but to the ranch which she proudly
considers her legacy. But she tries to maintain optimistic
that in time Curt would realize she was there for good. Ella
was developing a sense of belonging, an excellent rapport
with her music students and a bit of interest in her hunky
neighbor Beckett owner of the Broken Arrow ranch. Ella already knew Beckett's twin seven-year-old sons as
students. These two were well known as the terrors of the
school. For the most part, Ella concurred with that opinion,
but after spending time with Trevor and Colter, she knew
they were actually caring, wonderful kids. Beckett was
obviously doing a pretty good job as a single dad. Problem with small towns is the scarcity of single folk.
Ella and Beckett were not really intending to develop
anything more than friendly neighbors. Too much at stake.
Attraction aside these two clear-headed people were somewhat
determined just to ignore it. But with the holiday season
approaching you just can't help but have a bit of romance
in all of us, including two really adorable twin boys. THE RANCHERS CHRISTMAS SONG is a cheery tale to be sure and
reminds us to look toward the future. RaeAnne Thayne, always
the romantic, uses this season to bring love and happiness
into the lives of two very deserving characters.
SUMMARY
Keep a song in your heart this holiday season… When Beckett McKinley's twin boys need help preparing a
Christmas song for their father, music teacher Ella Baker
agrees on one condition: they teach her to ride a horse. Her
decision certainly has nothing to do with the crush she has
on sexy single dad Beck… It isn't disinterest spurring Beck to keep his distance—if
anything, the spark is too strong, with Ella reminding him
of his ex-wife. But with the holidays approaching, Beck and
Ella will have to overcome past hurts if they want to keep
each other warm this Christmas… Also included, a Cowboys of Cold Creek
favorite—The Cowboy's Christmas
Miracle! Jenna Wheeler's Christmas is not looking very merry and
bright, until her gorgeous new landlord, Carson McRaven,
helps her find the Christmas spirit where she least expects
it—in his arms.
