Sunny…a beacon of sunshine and hope
An Unlikely Pair
Tobias K. Blackthorne isn’t used to putting down roots—or answering to anyone. A drifter by trade and temperament, he’s spent his life moving from one job to the next, skirting the line between lawman and outlaw. But when he arrives in Cooper’s Ridge at Pastor Murphy’s invitation, he’s caught off guard by Sunny Wilson, a spirited woman with an iron will and a heart full of hope. She’s determined to find a family for a young orphan boy before Christmas, and somehow, she’s decided Tobias is part of the solution.
Sunny’s dream of a home brimming with love and laughter is within reach if she can just convince Tobias to help her. But with the clock ticking and the orphan facing a bleak future back at the orphanage if no one steps up, she’ll need more than her usual charm to win him over. As Christmas draws near, Tobias must decide if he’s ready to take a chance on something he’s always avoided—staying in one place and opening his heart. Can a man who’s never believed in second chances help Sunny create the family she’s fighting for, or will his reluctance cost them all their shot at happiness? —Especially when the sins of his past threaten them all.
