Christmas Cowboy by Diana Palmer (Originally published November 1997 in the anthology Lone Star Christmas…and Other Gifts by Silhouette Books)

Corrigan Hart isn’t the marrying kind, but he has always wanted Dorie Wayne all the same. The ironhearted rancher can’t admit how much the enticing, yet innocent, Dorie means to him—until she leaves small-town Texas for the big city. When a fateful Christmas encounter brings him face-to-face with his long-lost love, will these star-crossed lovers find happiness under the mistletoe?

A Stone Creek Christmas by Linda Lael Miller

Stone Creek veterinarian Olivia O’Ballivan communicates easily with animals…not so much with handsome men like rancher Tanner Quinn. Sparks fly when Olivia cares for his daughter’s pony, and it’s not long before she finds herself conspiring with twelve-year-old Sophie to get Tanner into the Christmas spirit. But will a holiday miracle transform Tanner into a rancher—and family man—for all seasons?



Whitehorse Christmas Showdown by B.J. Daniels (originally published in 2007 Harlequin Intrigue as The Mystery Man of Whitehorse and Classified Christmas )

Rugged stranger Bridger Duvall has everyone talking. He’s a mystery Laci Cavanaugh wants to unravel. But when one murder threatens their growing bond, can Laci and Bridger work together to deliver justice for Christmas?

Classified Christmas



Andi Blake comes to Whitehorse to expose town secrets. In the process, she butts heads with cowboy Cade Jackson, who’s a sucker for a sassy brunette in high heels. And while she didn’t come to town looking to be lassoed by love, now that she’d rustled up one, could she find a way to get Cade under the mistletoe?



Christmas Rescue at Mustang Ridge by Delores Fossen

To find a bone marrow donor for his ailing baby girl, Sheriff Jake McCall will do anything—even break the law. He hacks into WITSEC to track down Maggie Gallagher—the only person who could be a genetic match. Jake is unprepared for her willingness to help—and for the desire and hunger she arouses in him. With time running out and a killer on their heels, Jake has to keep Maggie alive—and give his daughter a Christmas miracle.

Christmastime Cowboy by Maisey Yates

Thirteen years ago, Liam Donnelly’s boss offered him a bribe—leave his daughter alone and get a full ride at college. Convinced he wasn’t good enough for Sabrina Leighton, Liam took it. Now he’s back, as wealthy as sin and with a heart as cold as the Oregon snow.
