Book excerpt: HIS CHRISTMAS PRESENT Madison Wallace is determined to make this Christmas extra special for her twin boys. Money is tight, but at least Maddy can do something about that…unlike the rumors of her late husband's infidelity. So the part-time job at Cole Hudson's ranch is a perfect solution, and kind, sexy Cole is darn near perfect, too. Unfortunately, Maddy can't trust her heart—or a man—ever again. Cole only intended to help Maddy out with the holidays. But the moment she and her boys arrive at his ranch, they capture his heart completely. Convincing Maddy to give him a chance won't be nearly as easy. He's got the Secret Santa presents covered, but the gift Cole really wants to give Maddy is his love. Will Maddy be brave enough to accept it?
