Cowboy's Caress

A Ranching Family #9

by Victoria Pade

IN CARE OF THE COWBOY

A sprained ankle at her going-away party postponed Carly Winters's departure from Elk Creek indefinitely. Suddenly she was looking at a very full house when the new town doctor, Bax McDermot, and his daughter moved into her home... as scheduled... then moved into her life... something totally unexpected.

Bax looked more cowboy than caregiver, but his rock-solid build belied the gentleness of his touch. His tender, loving caresses helped to heal Carly's wounded foot -- and her wounded heart. But Carly had given up on men, convinced she'd find true happiness when she explored the world outside Wyoming. Only everything she could ever want was living under her very own roof....

A Ranching Family:
Though scattered by years and tears, the Heller clan share mile-deep roots in one Wyoming ranch -- and a singular talent for lassoing the unlikeliest hearts!

About the author

Victoria Pade is the bestselling author of numerous contemporary romances, six historical romances and two mystery novels. She began her writing career after leaving college to have her first daughter. That daughter was seven years old and there was a second daughter, before Victoria had her first book accepted for publication. That novel and the three that followed it were historical romances. But the exit of her husband and the urge to do more contemporary writing that explored the kinds of problems she was facing inspired a switch.

Reviews

[Priscilla · Rating 1 out of 5]

O romance retoma a já conhecida ideia da mulher que quer abandonar uma região interiorana, mas muda de ideia ao se apaixonar pelo médico local.

O problema não reside em ser um tema batido, e sim no drama que acompanha o casal tornando-se uma leitura pesada.
