They've never had a Christmas like this Take-no-prisoners rancher Joanna (Joey) Halligan hadn't believed the kind of love she felt for Nash Westbrook was even possible. So, when he walked away despite still declaring his love for her, broken-hearted, Joey fled. Now she's back, and carrying a surprise that even Santa wouldn't have guessed. Joey is having Nash's child. A Christmas baby! Rodeo champ come entrepreneur, Nash Westbrook, has never regretted anything in his life as much as leaving Joey Halligan. But how else could he keep her safe? The investment fraud he'd been wrongfully dragged into had destroyed so many people, and many of them wanted to extract their revenge. Now she's back and carrying his child. A vulnerable child-and that's a game changer. Nash is determined to prove to Joey that his love has never dimmed; that he'll never leave her-them-again. But with new evidence against him emerging, he'll need all the Christmas magic of the season to truly keep that promise.
