A Cowboy's Touch

HUNTER, DENISE


A COWBOY'S TOUCH


Abigail is just in Moose Creek, Montana fro the the summer to temporarily care for her great aunt. But a tender-hearted cowboy beckons her to stay.


Abigail Jones intends to spend just one summer in middle-of-nowhere Montana with her Aunt Lucy. Time away from her job is just what Abigail needs to reassess her life. The slow pace has her breathing deeply for the first time in years. And the majestic scenery encourages her to get acquainted with herself...and God.


What she didn't count on was the handsome widowed cowboy who owns the ranch where her aunt lives. When the rancher loses his daughter's nanny, Abigail decides to lend a hand for the summer.


Wade Ryan can't help being attracted to Abigail. But he's given up everything to protect his daughter, and he's not about to risk it all on a pretty face.


Under Abigail's care, Wade's home and daughter thrive. And with Wade's touch, Abigail's heart feels at home at last. But Abigail knows this elusive rancher is hiding something. Will her own secrets separate her from the cowboy who finally captured her heart?


HUNTER KNOWS HOW TO MATCH SIZZLE WITH THE KIND OF TENDERNESS THAT MAKES FOR A BLISSFUL ROMANTIC READ. BUT SHE ALSO KNOWS HOW TO THREAD ANGST INTO A STORY -- THE KIND THAT HAD ME SQUIRMING IN MY SEAT. HONESTLY, WHEN IT GOT DOWN TO THE CRUNCH I HAD TO RACE THROUGH TO THE END BEFORE I COULD BREATHE AGAIN!


I CAN'T SAY MORE WITHOUT GIVING SOME OF THE PLOT AWAY BUT THERE WERE TIMES I WANTED TO REACH INTO THE PAGES AND SHAKE SOME SENSE INTO ABIGAIL FOR WHAT SHE PUT POOR WADE THROUGH -- FOR WHAT SHE PUT ME THROUGH! THANKFULLY HUNTER CAME TO THE RESCUE AND SWEPT US ALL AWAY INTO A SPECTACULAR HAPPY ENDING. PHEW, I COULD BREATHE AGAIN!
