Her family's future in the Territories looked bright indeed, until an unspeakable tragedy robbed her of her husband. Now, on Christmas Eve, she can find little reason to rejoice. As the winter tightens its grip, she's all alone with a baby, and to top things off, her son is sick.

 

Alex Sullivan only had one more visit to make before heading home for Christmas. When the young doctor finds himself snowed in at Harper Farm, however, he discovers that Emily's son isn't the only one who needs help. He knows how to heal the body. But will he be able to heal Emily's spirit as well?

When Johanna looks at Nelson, she doesn't just see a good man. She sees a man who needs her help. She knows that her love could make him whole again, but almost as soon as they're married, his guilt starts driving a wedge between them. How can she mend her husband's heart when he won't let her love him?

The only thing that saves her from being returned to her former life is rancher Joe Marks, who steps out of his room and into her life.

 

When Joe sees a woman in trouble, he helps out. In this case, it got him more than he bargained for, since Rita needs more than just some momentary assistance. He gives her shelter on his ranch, and soon he begins to feel more than just charity for this mysterious beauty. But will her past destroy their future?

As part of the Perry Gang, Hoyt had robbed some of the biggest banks in the Midwest, and now on Valentine’s Day they were about to pull off their biggest heist yet: the National Bank of Nebraska. He just needed to lay low for a while, and where better than Osbourne Farm? 

She loved him then. He says he loves her now. But will he give up his life of crime in exchange for a devoted wife?
