The Bride's Unrequited Love
Cassie McCall

Reese is a Texas rancher who needs a mother for his young child. He still grieves for his wife and vows to keep his distance from Rose as he refuses to love again.
Rose is met with coldness from both Reese and his daughter but she has nowhere else to go. She prays that Reese may come to care for her as time passes. But with heartache at every turn, it takes a near tragedy for Reese to admit how much he cares.
