DAD ON THE DOUBLE
Frankie Hartman never thought she’d see Spence Bohanan again. Not after he broke her heart and walked away before she could tell the wandering cowboy about his twin daughters. Now that he’s back in Mustang Valley, Frankie has to reveal the truth. At least about his kids—Spence can never find out that she still secretly aches for him.
Spence finally has his life together and he’s ready to prove himself to the only woman he’s ever loved, but her revelation shakes everything up. It doesn’t take long for him to fall in love with his little girls, but repairing the trust between him and Frankie won’t happen quite so quickly. Spence is ready to be a family man—will Frankie give him a chance?
“Newborn pictures are never the best,” Frankie explained.
Spence needed a moment. Swallowing, he waited for his heart to sink back into place from where it had lodged in his throat. These were his daughters when they were just a day, maybe hours, old!
“I think they’re beautiful.”
“I might have extra copies stored in a drawer I can give you along with the thumb drives.”
He nodded, not trusting himself to speak.
“I wish I’d been there,” Spence said without thinking and realized with a start how much he really did wish it.
Frankie turned her face to his, and tears shone in her eyes. “This is harder than I thought it would be.”
“Aw, honey. Don’t cry.”
Spence put an arm around her and she angled her body toward him and lifted her chin—something she’d done when they were dating and she wanted him to kiss her.
Wait. Take a breath. Think.
He had to be mistaken, right? Then again, not all old habits were bad, were they?

“When are you going to quit this job and run away with me?”
The man, seventy if he was a day, stared up at Frankie Hartman with an endearing smile.
She refilled his mug from the pot that was never far away and always contained freshly brewed coffee. Propping an elbow on the counter, she said, “Now, Everett. What about my girls? They’re just three. I couldn’t possibly leave them.”
“Ah. The twins. I forgot.”
He hadn’t. Everett passed through southern Arizona at least twice a month, hauling gravel and sand for a regional supplier. The Cowboy Up Café, where Frankie worked her tail off as head waitress, was a regular stop for him and he often engaged her in a flirtatious exchange that both of them knew
