The Ranch's Hand's Christmas Wish: Christmas Wishes Out West Book 9
Lillian Ruth
At twenty-one, Constance Winslow believes her future was buried with the man she loved. After tragedy strikes in New York’s crowded tenements, grief leaves her with few choices—and even fewer hopes. When a kindly neighbor suggests answering a mail-order bride advertisement, Constance makes a daring she boards a westbound train, determined to be married by Christmas and begin again.
Ralph Keevy, a Montana rancher, never intended for matters to go this far. Pressured by his parents to settle down, he places an advertisement he scarcely expects to answer—then flees to the goldfields when reality closes in. When Constance arrives in Big Valley expecting a wedding, she finds herself stranded, betrayed, and facing a winter far from home.
Yet amid snow-dusted mountains, crackling hearth fires, and the quiet beauty of ranch life, Christmas works its gentle magic. As Constance waits for Ralph’s return, unexpected friendships form—and a steady, kindhearted cowboy offers her something she never respect, warmth, and hope.
As Christmas draws near, Constance must decide whether to cling to a promise made in ink—or open her heart to a love born of honesty, faith, and second chances.
Sometimes, the greatest gifts arrive when plans fall apart.
