Her Country Boy
Big-city veterinarian Heather Fitzgerald didn’t plan on having kids...until her niece is orphaned one tragic night. Soon she’s trading in her ambitious life for a small-town animal rescue. Heather didn’t expect to fall for tiny Oaks Crossing...or its most charming bachelor farmer. But when Josh Kinley saves her niece from a near-tragic accident, he becomes more than her hero. Josh never thought he’d fall in love again—and most assuredly not with another city woman. But he can’t resist the two adorable Fitzgerald females. Now if Josh can only convince Heather to put down roots and make a home with him...
One thing was missing.
“Hey, you.” As if he’d heard her thoughts, Josh appeared.
“I thought you’d ditched me.”
“Not hardly,” he drawled with a lazy grin. “Been arranging a horse for your niece.”
Heather smiled. “How do you always have a solution to my problems?”
“A knack for being in the right place at the right time, I guess.”
And for stepping up to do more than any girl had a right to expect, she thought.
That’s when she realized she could be in trouble with this country boy. She’d always been too independent to lean on someone, too afraid they’d leave.
Would Josh?
“That’s a serious face,” he teased, ticking her nose. “What’s going on in that pretty head?”
“Just thinking. You know, guys usually tell me I’m too much work. Why don’t you feel that way?”
She held her breath to hear his reply.
“Some things are worth the effort. And—” he pulled down his hat in a rakish pose “—there’s nothing I like more than a good challenge.”
