A lovely Christmas listen.

I received this audiobook via a promo code at my request and this is my honest review.

Its Christmas in Maverick, Wyoming for Ellie Jo Cade, a woman fleeing in disgrace after news of her infamous fathers deeds reach the ears of her social circle, one failed engagement and destitution looming, she hopes to at least spend the holidays with her old man, and talk him away from his path of revenge all while pretending to be a housekeeper at a cattle ranch before heading to San Francisco and becoming a teacher. Her plan would have been excellent.... except she never actually learned how to cook. Her disasters in the kitchen seem to have a helping hand however and it seems someone else may be trying to sabotage her efforts as she prepares for her bosses upcoming Nuptials later that week, and she's miserable as her hopes to reunite with her dad are met with a frosty reception from the man.

Reid Barclay doesn’t have time for Christmas, much less a marriage to the daughter of his foster father, who promised him the Crown Seven Ranch if he married the girl. He's determined to carry it through, his brothers are counting on him and there's trouble brewing as someone's been out stealing his prized thoroughbred horses, and his Wifey to be seems less than thrilled about the match, bewildering him even more when she goes from meek mouse to Seductress without warning. Too bad Reid's preoccupied thinking thoughts an engaged man has no business to be thinking about his new housekeeper.

When all the secrets finally come out, it seems the wedding is off and Reids dreams of owning the Crown Seven Ranch are just about over, but none of that matters if Ellie Jo agrees to let him make her an honest woman.

This was a delightful holiday listen. Its my first listen by J Rodney Turner and I really enjoyed this narration while decorating my house for the holidays this year.
