The Doctor and the Cowboy
Stranded at single father Dan Gallagher’s ranch during a Colorado blizzard, Dr. Beth Rogers is counting the days till the roads are clear. She can’t wait to leave for her exciting new life in New York. But suddenly the big-city doctor is delivering babies in log cabins, helping to feed newborn calves and teaching Dan’s little girl to play hymns on the piano. No-nonsense Beth even throws a snowball or two at the handsome, love-shy cowboy. She thought she had her heart set on leaving, so why does she dream of Dan asking her to stay forever?
“Nice work,” Dan commented.
“Thank you,” she murmured.
“You need to ask my mother to teach you to needlepoint. You’re a natural.”
She chuckled and their eyes met and held. Her face warmed.
“So this is what your rescue team is all about,” Beth said quietly to Dan.
“Not always such happy endings. We could use someone like you on the team,” Dan murmured.
Beth met his gaze and paused. His smile caught her and she lost focus, lured for a brief reckless moment into considering a future outside of her carefully laid plans.
Dan Gallagher stirred something in her that she wasn’t familiar with. For the very first time in her entire life, she was tempted to consider acting on her feelings instead of using her head.
She averted her gaze and rational thought once again took over.
Paradise was, after all, merely a stop on the road to her tomorrow. Dan Gallagher, a pleasant detour.
That was the reality she had to cling to.

Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
—Philippians 3:13–14
While it’s true that it always takes a village, this book took several villages.
