Stranger At The Crossroads

By Gena Dalton

TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS

Widowed veterinarian Darcy Hart wanted to believe the old adage, but a year after the tragic deaths of her husband and son, she knew it wasn't true. Desperate to escape her grief–stricken life, Darcy headed south to Mexico–and landed in the arms of a kindred soul with the bluest eyes in Texas.

LOVE HEALS ALL HEARTS

Reclusive rancher Jackson McMahan didn't want Darcy's help, but with a pregnant mare to care for, he needed the feisty female vet more than he cared to admit. What was it about the green–eyed beauty that made him want to welcome her into his home–and into his heart?
