Christmas at Mistletoe Ranch Stephanie Hurt

Maddy Raleigh is desperate, her confidence in finding herself gone, so she takes a job as a ranch hand in Mistletoe, Montana. She's not prepared for the bitter cold and snow. Then, just a mile out from Mistletoe, her car breaks down and she walks to the little cafe in town. She's broke, cold, and feels like she's made the worst mistake of her life. Denver Hanson is a former rodeo king, turned family ranch owner. He's been through so much in his lifetime that he's become somewhat of a hermit. His only concern is his ranch. But he is surprised to hear this tiny woman is the new employee at the ranch. He volunteers to take her to the ranch, but first he insists on getting her better equipped for the weather, so she doesn't die of pneumonia, failing to mention he's her new boss. Her complete lack of skills makes him laugh but he knows she can't continue to work there if she doesn't quickly improve. Something begins to brew between them, but both are aware that anything between them would cause problems, but they can't just pretend like there's nothing there. The struggle the two of them go through in order to do the right thing drives them further apart. Can they find a way or will Maddy be heading back to Georgia before Christmas?
