      Star-crossed teenage lovers finally reunite for a second chance

      Losing Miranda broke Matt Grimes’s heart—and kept him from knowledge of his impending fatherhood. Now Miranda Contreras has returned to Rocking Chair, Texas—with their eight-year-old daughter. In search of safe haven, this runaway bride needs to regroup. Matt should be angry! What other secrets is Miranda keeping? But all he sees is a chance to be the family they were meant to be.

      To “Honey” Colwell,

      my fur grandchild and the inspiration for

      Sweetie Pie, the rescued stray dog in

      The Cowboy’s Secret Family. No matter how many times Honey gets sprayed by Eau de Stink, she’s determined to catch the rascally skunk that prowls the neighbourhood at night. Maybe next time, Honey.

      And to Jeff and Sarah Colwell.

      Thank you for the opportunity to spend a

      special summer with Emalee and Katie, my

      two granddaughters, and a barnyard menagerie

      consisting of one overly protective shepherd mix,

      six free-range chickens, two 4-H lambs and a

      couple of horses. Love you, guys!
