ABOUT THE BOOK
In the high country of Colorado, hardships are a given, but love has a way of overcoming all the losses.
Millionaire heiress, Genevieve Hollis, has everything she wants except one thing, freedom, because her guardian stepmother insists on overseeing every move she makes. When Genevieve sees a newspaper advertisement from a rancher seeking a mother for his baby, she jumps at the chance to escape, even if that means hiding her true identity.
Ryder Oakley has suffered the repeated misfortune of losing the people he loves most, so now that he’s a single father with a newborn baby, he’s determined not to lose his son. When a woman shows up in answer to his advertisement, he quickly forms a marriage of convenience—one without all the entanglements of a real relationship.
Attraction starts to grow between the newly married couple, but the secrets of their pasts threaten to catch up to them. Ryder finds himself in a custody battle over his baby, and Genevieve struggles to outwit her stepmother. Will they be able to overcome the odds and find a way to be together before it’s too late?

MY THOUGHTS.....
I loved this marriage-of-convenience story that began with a mail-order bride scenario but soon evolved into an honest-to-goodness love match. But wait...it couldn't be that easy, so Hedlund added misunderstandings, attempted murder, and even a custody battle. Whew, or should I say Whoo-ee? I certainly wasn't bored, and I hated to see their story end! Grab a copy of this book if you enjoy chemistry-laden but clean Western romance.
I received a complimentary e-copy from the author. There was no obligation for a positive review.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
