Her Cowboy Protector

A man resigned to a lonely future And a woman fighting to overcome her past Painfully shy, Harper Lynn is desperate to start a new life on Crossroads Ranch--even if her housekeeping skills aren't quite up to her new boss's standards. Ames Parker, the gruff ranchhand and her new coworker, is willing to show her the ropes and help her battle her occasional PTSD--for the sake of the ranch, of course. But Harper soon learns that Ames has his own past hurts and is unable--or unwilling--to let down his well-fortified walls. Because he knows that once the former librarian sees his true self, she'll run for the hills, breaking his heart in the process. Still, maybe a belief in possibilities can lead to a future neither expect... From Harlequin Special Edition: Believe in love. Overcome obstacles. Find happiness.
