THIS IS A SWEET HISTORICAL WESTERN ROMANCE NOVELLA, APPROXIMATELY 22,000 WORDS.

Will Morgan has one plan – repair his cousin’s saloon, then head out of town and never look back. His need for adventure makes it impossible to settle down in one place, with one woman.

Widow Virginia Cole has one plan - get her boarding house back into shape so she can support herself and her son.

When Will’s foot falls through the rotting boards on Virginia’s porch and he offers to fix the damage, he finds himself also falling for the widow and her grieving son in spite of his best efforts to stay detached.

Virginia, determined to never love again, is attracted to Will, even though he’s made it clear he’s leaving as soon as possible.

Can a woman who’s afraid to love and man who’s afraid of commitment overcome their fears to build a new family together?

I have now read this whole series. Each book is a stand alone book , but much better when read in order. I enjoyed the story line and will look for more books from Margery Scott.
