Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory December, 1875 Ash Barker and his brother had just about built their ranch into a success when he busted his arm trying to tame a particularly nasty mustang. Now they're headed into Cheyenne's harsh winter with fewer hands, and a very real danger of failure. They need someone else-anyone else-out there with them, to make it through this season. Molly Murray's dream of owning her own bakery went up in flames with the Great Chicago Fire. She's been supporting her younger sisters for the last four years, and it seems like the Cheyenne wilderness might be her last chance to give them all a real home. But no one will hire her, until she meets the intimidatingly masculine, incredibly handsome, and very desperate Ash Barker. Can their unique families blend in time to celebrate their first real Cheyenne Christmas?
