Autumn's Hope — Kathleen Ball

Pregnant and alone, Autumn Lavin moves to the small town of Carlston, Montana intending to open a vegetarian restaurant, determined that she doesn't need a man in her life. Hunky, Cattleman, Jonas Barnes is instantly at odds with Autumn, he has a much needed contract to supply the restaurant with beef. Jonas is an injured Army Veteran with too many scars, inside and out, to ever truly open his heart. Autumn's love wraps around him but he is afraid that once she sees how damaged he really is she'll turn away.
