      Her luck’s changing for the better…right?

      Making the tough decisions has always been easy for big-city human-resources specialist Ellison Hunter…until a surprise pregnancy changes everything. Now it’s her life that needs major reorganization. Putting her personnel expertise to use on her family’s Montana ranch is the perfect escape—even if it means contending with ace rancher Ryan Madison.

      His stubborn pride and loyalty to the staff? Those she can handle. But his sexy grin, cowboy charm and instinct to protect her and her baby catch her off guard. As attraction spins into something more, Ellie finds herself even further out of her element. But maybe, with Ryan, she’s exactly where she belongs.

      He wanted to touch her

      Ellie could sense it. And worse yet, she felt the same, as if a wall had fallen away and she’d realized it was possible to touch.

      Dear heaven, how she wanted to. She wanted to step closer, take Ryan’s face in her hands and kiss him. Softly the first time, hard and deep the second time. To find out what all those lean muscles felt like under her fingers. She wanted to wrap herself around him, experience what this cowboy had to offer and for one brief moment just feel and not think.

      But it wasn’t possible. That was what had gotten her into this situation, and she’d been stupid to let herself meander along this path. She was pregnant. She was leaving. She couldn’t toy around with this guy—it wasn’t fair to either one of them.

      Ellison stepped back.

      Dear Reader,

      Have you ever heard the saying that life is what happens while you’re making other plans? Well, life happens to Ellison Hunter in a big way when she discovers she’s pregnant and that the father of her child is not the guy she thought he was. All of her carefully crafted plans disintegrate, and the next thing she knows, she’s in Montana, on a ranch, dealing with cows and cowboys and a lifestyle that’s utterly foreign to her. Ellie isn’t wild about unfamiliar environments, but now that she’s there, she’s determined to make the best of it, for both herself and her baby.

      Enter my cowboy hero who’s too busy to make plans. He takes what life tosses him and deals with it—and he wants to help Ellie deal with her problems, too, but Ellie’s not ready to depend on anyone. Not now…maybe not ever.

      I’ve made a few plans over the years that got knocked off track by life happening—like, say, the time I was supposed to go to Washington, D.C., as an intern and instead met and married my husband. I never saw that coming and I’ve never regretted the rapid career change that ensued. Funny how life works out.

      I hope you enjoy reading about Ellie and Ryan as much as I enjoyed writing the story. Please visit my website at www.jeanniewatt.com, or contact me at [email protected]. You can also follow my adventures sewing vintage clothing at retrosewingromance.blogspot.com.

      CHAPTER ONE

      SHE WOULDN’T NEED black pumps on a ranch...would she?

      Ellison Hunter hesitated for only a moment before she tucked her trusty Christian Louboutin shoes, toes stuffed with the original tissue, into their usual spot in her travel bag. She had no idea what she’d be facing in Montana, but would hate to need her pumps
