About this title

Book Description:

Schoolmarm Grace Calhoun thought it was tough trying to teach the Reeves boys. Now that she’s their—egad!—stepmother, things are looking even bleaker. Can Grace tame these malicious monsters and win the heart of their reserved father before a relentless predator tracks her down?

From the Back Cover:

The Bride Came T.O.D.—Trouble on Delivery

Running from her abusive foster-father, a man intent on revenge, the prim and perfectly proper Grace Calhoun takes on the job of schoolmarm in Mosqueros, Texas.

As if being a wanted woman isn’t enough, Grace has her hands full with the five rowdy and rambunctious Reeves boys—tough Texan tormenters who seem intent on making her life miserable. When, in an attempt to escape from the clutches of her pursuer, Grace is forced to marry widower Daniel Reeves, father of the miniature monsters, she thinks things couldn’t get any worse. Or could they?

Daniel Reeves, happy in his all-male world, is doing the best he can, raising his five boys—rascals, each and every one. Since his wife’s death in childbirth, Daniel has been determined never to risk marriage again.

When God throws Grace and Daniel together—two people who couldn’t detest each other more—the trouble is only beginning.

Will this hapless pair find the courage to face life together in the isolated Calico Canyon? Or are their differences too broad a chasm to bridge?
