A fan-favorite from #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson, originally published in A Fortune’s Children Christmas in 1998.
Chase Fortune has one year to turn around a rundown ranch to inherit it from his great-aunt. But his careful plans go awry when he rescues his beautiful neighbor, Lesley Bastian, from a blizzard and helps her deliver her baby.
Lesley isn’t the staying type—she wants to get back on her feet as soon as possible so she can manage her own ranch. But fate and weather conspire to keep them together, and soon Chase must face the terrible choice between his home and his heart.
