About this listen
Gruff rancher Luke Evans' new live-in housekeeper comes with an unexpected addition...a small son! Emily may be pretty - and even Luke has to grudgingly admit little Sam's quite cute - but a family is not on this die-hard bachelor's wish list! Luke's plan? To spend as much time away from the house as possible. But, slowly charmed by Emily's sunny smile and Sam's infectious giggle, Luke begins to wonder if there might be room on his ranch - and in his heart - for a family after all....

Story
Competing as a professional rodeo cowboy was everything he wanted. All that mattered. An opportunity he wouldn’t pass by. But it meant leaving his high-school sweetheart behind. Mae Wells was sweet, and innocent, and quiet. Not the kind of girl you dragged away from her family and home to follow you around the country. At eighteen it didn’t seem like a huge sacrifice. But at almost thirty, Boone’s lived enough and lost enough to realize he threw away something precious. Something he’s been chasing ever since.

Narrator should not do romance
Listening to this audio book was painful. The narrator was not good and ruined the story for me. His voice just isn't cut out for the whole romance thing. Maybe non-fiction or something equally dry and unemotional.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
