The Colorado Rancher's Doorstep Bride: A Western Historical Romance Book
"You think you’re too damaged to be loved."
"I know I am," he said.
"Then let me prove you wrong," she said softly.
Myra has never been wanted—not by her birth parents, nor the ones who raised her. So when a letter full of kindness arrives from a Colorado rancher, she dares to hope. But the man waiting isn’t the one who wrote her… “You’re not what I expected,” she says. “Neither are you,” Leon mutters.
Leon learned long ago that needing anyone ends in pain. A limp from the night his parents died—and guilt he can’t bury—keeps him distant. But now there’s a baby on his porch, a woman in his kitchen, and a life he never asked for. “You’re not staying,” he tells her. “We’ll see,” she says, folding the baby’s blanket.
As the baby brings them closer, so does danger. When a shadowed neighbor has questions about the child, they must will they cling to old wounds, or fight for the future they never thought they’d have?
A babe between, a porch, a cry,
A second chance they can’t deny.
Through danger near and pain once deep,
They find the kind of love worth keep..

Great Story
This is a really great story. When Myra fled to Colorado as a mail order bride for Leon it was because she didn't want to marry a man old enough to be her dad or maybe grandfather, not to mention he was a good person anyway. When she got there she not only found Leon, who didn't know she was coming,his sister Ruby and a baby who was left on their doorstep. This really was a very good story.

For the love of Kitten
This story about Myra and Leon has so much going on in the book. Right from the beginning there is betrayal for a good reason and a package at the door. Will the child bring everyone together or will it split people apart. So well written from start to finish

3.5 stars.
The chars haters were nice although the baddie a bit too bad to be believable. Story implausible but a HEA ending so light, fluffy but a nice read.
