A True Cowboy Christmas by Caitlin CrewsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
After burying his bitter and twisted father Gray Everett realises he needs to change his life to avoid following in his father's footsteps. And what better way to change than to find a suitable wife? After his first wife left him and their daughter because farming was boring Gray is looking for a woman who understands farming life, someone practical, someone salt-of-the-earth, a companion, a helpmate, romance doesn't enter into his thoughts. When his eye alights on his neighbour Abby Douglas he thinks his prayers have been answered.
Abby Douglas has been in love with Gray ever since she was a young girl. But no-one ever wants to be called salt-of-the-earth or be praised for practicality and being sensible, but ultimately the idea of marrying the man of her dreams, of building a family with him and being a mother to his daughter is too much to resist.
Friends to lovers trope meets marriage of convenience as Abby deals with Gray, his two younger brothers, his daughter and her own feelings of inferiority. For Cal, the marriage turns out better than he could have hoped ... until Abby lets slip that she has always loved him, then his sensible, no-nonsense, business transaction becomes all about feelings.
