Series: Colorado Cowboys #5
Author: Jody Hedlund
Publisher: Bethany House Publishing
Release Date: February 14, 2023
Genre: Christian Historical Romance
With danger drawing ever closer, their only hope of saving their futures lies in each other.
As a midwife, Catherine Remington is successful in bringing new life into the world, but she's failed one too many times in finding true love. When she's accused of a murder she didn't commit, she's forced to flee to Colorado to honor a patient's dying wish by delivering a newborn infant to his father.
The repentant prodigal Dylan McQuaid is finally back in Fairplay. As sheriff, he's doing his best to prove to the town he's a changed man and worthy of their trust. When a woman shows up with an infant son he didn't know he had, Dylan is left with only complicated choices on what to do next.
Having grown attached to Dylan's son, Catherine doesn't want to part ways with the infant, but what she doesn't bargain for is how easily she'll fall for the charming sheriff, or how quickly the past will catch up with her and put their love and lives in danger.
“What’s a fine lady like you doing in this establishment at this time of day?” His words were
hard and biting, almost as if she’d imposed upon him with her presence.
“As a matter of fact, I’ve been here all night assisting one of the young women during her time
of travail.”
He cocked his head, his brows lifting.
“I’m a midwife. I’ve been here delivering a baby.”
“Well, it’s a good thing you stepped into the hallway when you did, isn’t it, boys?” Rocky
directed his question toward two men standing just inside the open doorway above the dead
body. They stepped over Stretch until they were both positioned behind Rocky, arms crossed
and staring at her.
She’d noticed the men with Rocky on occasion. Perhaps they served as his guards or his
servants. Either way, she wouldn’t let them intimidate her.
“Young lady,” Rocky said, “I’ll need you to testify to the police and the judge on my behalf, let
them know Stretch came after me and that I was left with no choice but to shoot him or lose
my life.”
Had Stretch provoked him? She glanced at Stretch’s crumpled body. There wasn’t a weapon in
sight. Blood poured out of the open wound in his bare chest, forming a dark puddle on the
floor. “I’m sorry, Mr. Kenna, but I can’t testify to that end—”
“Sure you can. You were right here.” He straightened his suit coat as though his business was
finished. “You saw everything just the way I said.”
He wanted her to lie for him? So he could get away with murder? Well, if he didn’t already
know, he was about to learn that she was a woman with as much integrity as her father. “No,
actually, I didn’t see Stretch do anything to harm you.”
Rocky started down the hallway toward her, and his men followed on his heels. Their footsteps
tapped a dangerous rhythm. If he could kill Stretch, what would stop him from killing her?
