Ranch hunk Hank Brownlee wanted only two things from his new housekeeper—companionship for his grieving father and some stick-to-your-ribs country cooking. What he got was something altogether different.

"Matron" he'd hired sight unseen turned out to be a blonde dynamo and a single mom. True, Maggie Woodward was a widow and she sure could cook, but she was also young and beautiful! And it wasn't long before Maggie and her little tyke had Hank's world turned upside down and his heartstrings twisted all around their dainty fingers….

Now all Hank had to do was convince his wary little widow that happily-ever-after was worth the risk!
