Romance

Stranger In Town

Jaclyn Wentworth is on her own with three little kids. She used to be married to the golden boy of their small Nevada town, but the marriage was a disaster because the golden boy never grew up. And he sure wasn't much of a daddy. 
Now Jaclyn's living in Reno, making it on her own. And who, of all people, does she run into there but Cole Perrini, bad boy of Feld, Nevada. Or should she say former bad boy? He was always her ex-husband's opposite in every way - and he still is. Because Cole's made good in every sense of the word. 
Jaclyn and Cole both have their reasons for being cautious, but with a love like theirs it's bound to be a special holiday season.
