The Cowboy Tutor

Lesson One: Listen To Your Heart

With the mortgage due and funds scarce, Madge Morgan can't afford distractions. Especially not from Judd Kirk, her sister Louisa's meek tutor and-according to their mother's plans-suitor. Madge's focus is on her housekeeping job... little knowing Judd's connection to her employer, or his real reason for coming to Golden Prairie.

At last, Judd has found the man who swindled his mother. Yet if he seeks revenge, he risks losing the one thing he wants even more: a woman with faith enough to rekindle his own. A woman with strong values and a gentle heart. A woman like Madge.


With Alberta in the grip of the Depression, Louisa Morgan is desperate to bolster her family's finances.

But how can she tutor bedridden Ellie Hamilton? The little tomboy is more interested in making mischief than studying sums. And the girl's bond with her handsome papa is another reminder to Louisa of the children she'll never have. For Emmet Hamilton, strength means shouldering burdens alone.

He never thought he'd let himself share his child, or his heart, ever again. But before long, Louisa's kindness and optimism start to change the cowboy's mind. Maybe he can gain the courage to trust again-in Louisa, in God's grace, and in this new family....


The Cowboy Comes Home

NEXT DOOR TO LOVE

Security and a home of her own-that's Sally Morgan's dream. And a new job could offer both. Her employer will marry her if she proves her worth as housekeeper. A sensible-if unromantic-plan. Until a lean, laid-back cowboy moves in next door...and "sensible" moves right out! Linc McCoy and his family left town years ago under a cloud of suspicion.

A cowboy with a tarnished name has nothing to offer a woman like Sally. Except for a spark of kinship neither can deny. And the growing hope that two guarded hearts might learn to trust in a power greater than them both.

Three Brides for Three Cowboys: Three sisters find love on the prairie.
