Mom's the word

**She's all alone - and pregnant!

**Things have not gone well for Hayley Ryan. Her beloved grandfather is dead. Her no-good ex-husband not only abandoned her for another woman but stole Hayley's inheritance - and left her pregnant. All she has now is a piece of property to camp on - and a secret mine that might or might not produce.

He's a rancher with strong family ties - and he's looking for a wife!

Jake Cooper is part owner of the Triple C Ranch in southern Arizona. Hayley Ryan's site is adjacent to the Triple C. The first time Jake rides into her camp, she points a shotgun at his head - and without even knowing it, takes aim at his heart....

Jake's determined to persuade Hayley to trust him and marry him. As for Hayley's baby-to-be - he'd love the chance to be a dad!
