UNEXPECTED FAMILY...
After a tour in Afghanistan and years as a trauma surgeon, Alonso Marquez needs to get out of Albuquerque and away from his past. A trip seems like the perfect solution, but he doesn’t make it far. Sparks fly when Alonso stops to help a gorgeous rancher fix her car, and just like that his road trip is cut short by one very hot night...with some very real consequences.
Hannah Buck didn’t plan on starting a family that night. Her hands are already full managing the ranch and helping her troubled half brother. But Hannah sees the good in Alonso and knows he will be an incredible dad to their baby—if only he could see it, too. Alonso has spent his life saving others. Now, with Hannah at his side, can he finally save himself?
“If my staying tonight is going to cause problems for you...”
“I don’t care what anyone says about me.” Besides, her family had been the topic of gossip for years in Paradise. Alonso would give them something new to chat about.
Seconds ticked by, then Alonso reached across the seat and brushed a strand of loose hair from her face. She didn’t want the night to end. Didn’t want to leave his side.
“Alonso?”
“What?”
“Do you ever get lonely?” Until she’d sat across the table from him at the restaurant, Hannah hadn’t consciously acknowledged the depth of her loneliness.
“Yes.” His quiet answer made her heart pound.
This is crazy. You hardly know the man.
She couldn’t argue with the voice in her head but the strength to resist a night in Alonso’s arms had fled the instant he’d pulled her close on the dance floor. “I don’t want to be alone tonight,” she whispered.
He leaned across the seat and slid his hand around the back of her neck. “I don’t want to be alone, either.”
And then he kissed her.
The world can be a scary, ugly place. Many of us have given up, thrown in the towel or lost hope at one time or another. It’s usually during those dark days when someone comes into our lives and shows us that not all is lost.
In The Surgeon’s Christmas Baby, no one is more world-weary than Alonso Marquez. As a trauma surgeon he’s seen far too much death and destruction to hold any faith in humanity. That is until he meets Hannah Buck. Hannah shows Alonso that love is the key to unlocking the beauty and goodness which still exists in the world. When Hannah becomes pregnant by accident, Alonso is terrified of bringing a child into a world where bad always wins over good. It’s only through Hannah’s love that Alonso finds the courage to leave the darkness behind and reach for a life filled with love and joy that only a family can bring.
I hope you enjoy Alonso and Hannah’s journey to their very own happy-ever-after. If you missed the first story in the Cowboys of the Rio Grande series, The Cowboy’s Redemption (June 2015) is still available through your favorite online retailers.
