About this listen
A single dad, a matchmaking eight-year-old daughter, and a sexy new third grade teacher is an explosive combination in this holiday romance.
On the second anniversary of her mom’s death, eight-year-old Alyssa ditches scouts to take some time for herself to remember her mom. When her dad, Hank, finally finds her after a hectic search, she is convinced it’s time for him to remarry. And she thinks her new third grade teacher would be perfect.
Hank Jefferson is a busy rancher with three kids. Since the death of his wife two years ago, he works hard to be both mother and father. Making lunches, spending quality time with each child, and managing the house while also running his cattle ranch. He doesn’t have time for a relationship. Alyssa’s third grade teacher makes his blood heat up, but he knows it would be wrong for him to date his daughter’s teacher.
Ellen Truehart has moved to this new town in a remote location on Lake Chelan to make a fresh start. She loves both the town and her class. Her past has taught her to be cautious around men and not to trust the system. When Alyssa starts acting out in class, Ellen has no choice but to call in the smoking-hot father.
Together, they must discover what's wrong with Alyssa. Join Hank and Ellen as they explore new territory.

Story
Caitlyn Sullivan had come from a long line of Hollywood royalty, stretching back to her Irish immigrant great-grandfather. At nine, she was already a star - yet still an innocent child who loved to play hide-and-seek with her cousins at the family home in Big Sur. It was during one of those games that she disappeared. Some may have considered her a pampered princess, but Cate was in fact a smart, scrappy fighter, and she managed to escape her abductors. Callan Cooper was shocked to find the bloodied, exhausted girl huddled in his house.

Story
My love story all started with a letter. Only it wasn’t from the man I’d eventually fall in love with. It was from his daughter. A sweet little girl named Birdie Maxwell who’d written to the magazine that I worked for. You see, once a year my employer fulfilled a few wishes for readers. Only that column didn’t start up again for months. So I fulfilled some of her wishes myself. It was harmless…so I thought. Until one day I took things too far. While anonymously granting yet another of Birdie’s wishes, I got a look at her father.

But Lily has a bigger challenge than two sulking teens. The house comes with Mack Cooper, high school teacher and handsome longtime renter. The arrangement: just housemates.

Story
I’m a full-time single dad to three daughters and CFO at Cloverleigh Farms. I don’t have time to fall in love - I’m too busy trying to run a business, keep the red socks out of the white laundry, and get the damn pillowcases on without owing a dollar to the swear jar. Sure, Frannie Sawyer is beautiful and sweet, but she’s 27, the boss’ daughter, and my new part-time nanny - which means she’s completely off-limits. It’s bad enough I can’t stop fantasizing about her. What kind of jerk would I be if I acted on the impulse to kiss her?

Story
There was trouble in Haven, Arizona, and Ranger Sam O'Ballivan was determined to sort it all out. He arrived posing as the new schoolteacher, and his first order of business was to bring the rough ranchers' children under control. To that end, he called on Maddie Chancelor, the local postmistress, whose younger brother was in firm need of discipline. Sam wasn't sure what to expect - but it was definitely not this graceful woman whose prim, proper stance was so at odds with the fire in her eyes.

Sweet Christmas story!
8yo Alissa lost her mom a couple of years ago...she’s especially sad without her mom as the holidays approach. Alissa dreams of her mom telling her that she’s sending her a new mom...and the little matchmaker begins! Alissa’s teacher is single and new to the school and town...she would be perfect for her dad. Between Alissa’s matchmaking efforts, and raw chemistry between Ellen and Hank, there just may be a very Merry Christmas for the lonely adults. Maybe. A creepy coworker and Ellen’s past may just get in the way of a happily ever after.
This story is short and sweet with just the right amount of heat and drama. Great job by the new-to-me narrator team.
I accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

An Emotional Romance
I enjoyed this sweet and emotional romance. I felt that this book book offered a lot of awww moments that touched your heart. I think that listeners that have suffered the same type of loss as Alyssa will really be able to connect with her thoughts, feelings and actions, The characters were likable and the story entertaining. I thought the pacing was a bit slow, but not to a disastrous extent. I would have loved for this to not just be a novella because I would have more depth and details to be added to this story. There is dual narration on this book and for me that is always a plus! I thought the narrators did a really good job.

Sweet Teacher/Rancher Romance
I was surprised that 1/3 of the POV was the 8-year-old daughter. She works to get her widower daddy together with her 3rd grade teacher.
This was light entertainment. I did not feel real depth of relationships.

Sweet Story
This was a very enjoyable, sweet, emotional read. Hank is a widowed rancher. Ellen is a new to town teacher. This was my first book by this author and I will definitely be reading more. I really enjoyed Hank and Ellen's story.
