TEXAS BRIDES HIS WOMAN, HIS CHILD

Jesse Barrister was back - lean muscled, broad shouldered and fit to be tied. Seemed his former sweetheart Mandy McCloud had a child who was the rancher's spittin' image.

Because a love-wary loner didn't have a blame thing to offer a lady like Alayna. Still, Jack detected a sadness beneath her perfection. And it was time the ultimate do-gooder let him do some good... and turn that McCloud woman into that McCloud bride!
