Western Hearts

Kip Cosgrove made a promise to his dying brother to raise his twin boys.

A former chuck-wagon racer who gave up the thrill of competition to keep that vow, he's raising five-year-old Justin and Tristan while running the family ranch and caring for his ailing mother. When a woman shows up claiming to be the new housekeeper, he's grateful for the help-until he discovers she's been lying about who she really is.

Nicole Williams came to Aspen Valley to find her sister's sons.
Her adoptive father is dying, desperate to see his grandsons before it's too late. When Nicole arrives at the Cosgrove ranch posing as a housekeeper, she discovers the twins are loved and cared for-and that their uncle Kip is nothing like she expected. He's honorable, selfless, and carrying his own burden of guilt over his brother's death. The more time she spends with him and the boys, the harder it becomes to remember why she came.

When hidden secrets come to light, Nicole's duty to her father wars with feelings she never anticipated-for the twins who've stolen her heart and the man who sacrificed everything for them. Kip will fight to keep the only family he has left, even if it means losing the woman he's falling for. Some promises demand loyalty, but love requires a different kind of courage.
