NOT A FAMILY MAN...
Mandy Richardson has always wanted a husband and lots of kids. She knows Ben Hartley isn’t a forever kind of guy, so she struggles to keep her feelings for him friends only. But she can’t help her growing attraction. Then one night their relationship blossoms into more, and soon Mandy discovers she’s pregnant.
Ben still bears the scars of a painful past—a past that has him avoiding love and commitment. When Mandy tells him he’s going to be a dad, he worries he won’t measure up. After all, his own father was far from a role model. But he’s fallen hard for Mandy, and now it’s up to him to prove he’s a better man—a stronger man—than he thought.
“Cut it out...”
Ben whispered close to Mandy’s ear, “You’re going to make me start laughing, too.”
“Sorry,” she whispered as she looked up.
Her laughter froze when their eyes met. The brightness staring back at him stole what was left of his breath. And from the way she was gazing up at him, he knew he wasn’t alone.
Come on, lungs, breathe!
Honestly, how could someone forget how to breathe? But as Mandy looked up at Ben’s face, it was as if someone had flipped the switch on her respiratory system to Off.
Damn, he was even more handsome up close. Thank goodness they were in near darkness. If he looked this good hiding in the shadows, this type of proximity in full light might just be her end.
His mouth parted, and she felt her traitorous body start to move toward him...
One of the hallmarks of a good romance story is that the hero and heroine have to overcome some significant obstacle to achieve their happily-ever-after. Sometimes that obstacle is so big that it doesn’t seem possible for them to get past it.
Such is the case for Mandy and Ben in The Rancher’s Surprise Baby. And yet true love always finds a way to change the hearts and minds that need to be changed.
I hope you enjoy Mandy and Ben’s journey to their happily-ever-after.
All the best,
Trish

Forget out of the frying pan and into the fire. Stepping out of the arctic air-conditioning of the Primrose Café into the suffocating heat of a Texas afternoon in August was like drilling a hole in the North Pole deep enough to fall straight into hell.
