Rugged Cowboy's Christmas Romance (Holiday Christmas Romance Nights #1)
Betrice Clayton
Now he’s back—with a foreclosure notice in his pocket and a kiss he shouldn’t have taken.
She’s raising a little boy with a fierce grip on what’s left of her trust.
Pain taught her to stay guarded.
Life taught her to survive alone.
He trades rodeo miles for late-night repairs, fixing fences and trying to mend the damage he caused.
Trying to earn a place in the home he never stopped wanting.
A barn becomes their refuge from a blizzard and from truths they’ve avoided for years.
Heat builds slow.
Then fast.
Then all-consuming.
Hands remember.
Kisses shift from cautious… to urgent… to something that feels like need.
But the papers hit hard—custody threats, liens, affidavits from a man who refuses to release his hold.
The town watches.
Old wounds sharpen into courtroom deadlines.
He has to prove he’s done running.
She has to believe he’s worth the risk.
Desire crashes into duty, and love becomes the hardest truth they’ll face.
If he loses, they lose everything.
If he wins, they finally get a life that won’t break.
Step into the barn. Stay for the fire.
