Just a Little Christmas, Hardcover

Believe in second chances this Christmas . . . Ellie Marsden couldn t wait to shake the dust of Branding Iron, Texas, off her heels and chase after bright lights, big city, and a wealthy husband. Now she s come home, divorced, a little disillusioned, and a whole lot pregnant. Leave it to her one-time high school sweetheart, cattle rancher Jubal Mc Farland, to point out that citified Ellie is as out of place in small-town Texas as her teacup poodle. So why is there something about being back and being with Jubal that feels surprisingly right? Jubal s eight-year-old daughter, Gracie, needs a mother, but he hasn t found the perfect woman. Or maybe the problem is that he did find her, and had his heart broken when she left town. Gracie s already falling hard for Ellie and that ball of fluff she calls a dog. And no matter how hard the rugged cowboy tries to resist, there s no denying the appeal of first love and sweet new beginnings especially when there s a little Christmas magic in the air . . ."
