This is a short story(10,000 words) with an HEA that includes 15 Sweet and Heartwarming bonus Romance books.
Texas is short of women and Jack, a thirty-year old cowboy, wants to settle down. So despite his misgivings he goes through with the wedding. His bride, Etta, doesn’t want to speak of her past but she’s not ready to be a complete wife to Jack either. In the midst of the coldest winter that Texas has ever experienced, Jack wonders if he’s condemned to a marriage as cold as the weather that’s devastating the cattle herds. When Jack returns home he finds that Etta may be losing the baby that he didn’t father, and he realizes that his feelings for her and the baby have changed.
