A Cowboy to Keep — Barbara Ankrum

On the run from her past, photographer Ali Thibeaux arrives undercover in Marietta to find her biological half-sister. Plan A: Meet Olivia, photograph her wedding, and disappear before endangering anyone. Plan B: All hell breaks loose.

Reclusive rancher Adam Wolfe's only plan when he hires Ali to manage his dysfunctional household is to go on hiding from the world. But his scars don't seem to matter to the beauty who unexpectedly turns his house into a home and heals the rift between him and the teenaged niece he's taken in. Still, he suspects there's more to Ali than meets the eye and he's determined to uncover what she's hiding from him before it's too late.
