About this ebook
Crazy Creek, Wyoming saves Leah Hanes's life. Running on fumes and bald tires, she thanks heaven for the Wimmers who recommend her to the Rocking J Ranch as a winter cook. Leah arrives to discover the ranch and the people need more than a cook.
Noel Johansen, heir of the Rocking J, happily left for the big city years ago. When he loses his family in a terrible accident, the best thing for everyone is to sell the place, ditch the memories, and move on. But his brother-in-law has other plans, and the beautiful new cook they've hired for the season threatens Noel's desire to remain detached.
The ranch represents Noel's future and selling it becomes more important than ever when one more tragedy leaves him with nothing. But memories can't be bought and sold, nor can a broken conscience heal itself. Home, heart, and future are irrevocably tied in Crazy Creek.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Leah, once a foster child, takes on a job at the Rocking J Ranch in Wyoming cooking for cowboys. It’s a place to stay until spring. She doesn’t trust horses and she has no intention of making any deep connections with anyone. She never has. Then Noel arrives. He’s the son who never liked the ranch and intends to sell it to a developer, but after a business deal gone bad he has no place else to go. He believes he’s no better than the Prodigal Son. Still, the familiar rhythm of life at the ranch grows on him. Old memories, and Leah, tug at his emotions until the joy of Christmas takes hold in Noel once again. This gentle, but complex romance was a wonderful read and highly recommended.
