Poor Boy's Christmas — Kathleen Ball

He's a deputy. She's a robber. Will their unlikely love receive a Christmas miracle?

Texas, 1808. Poor Boy Hastings wants to make the most of his college education and his new deputy's badge. But shortly after returning home for Christmas, his first collar is a beautiful woman destined for the gallows. Ignoring his prosperous future, he vows to do anything to stop the rope from looping around the thief's slender neck.

Molly McDonagh faithfully followed her father all the way to the end. When a robbery goes bad, she becomes an orphan and a prisoner all in one day. Grimly waiting her swinging fate, Molly's only hope is the spark she feels when the deputy visits her cell.

As bounty hunters get wind of the wanted woman, Poor Boy follows orders to hide out with Molly as brother and sister. In an isolated cabin, the two young hearts can't help but fall in love. Will their relationship be sentenced to death or can they somehow secure a Christmas miracle?
