A new ranch home
could lead to a new family.

He’s surprised to run into his teenage crush, Kendall Hunt, whose career as a professional chef has been shaken by scandal. As the two work together to save an Easter event usually hosted by Ryder’s mother, Kendall finds herself longing for this sense of family with Ryder and little Shepard. But when she has a chance to go back to the life she once knew, will she choose the dream she’s spent years chasing…or the new dream that has taken hold of her heart?

An Excerpt from A Texas Easter Blessing
“I’m sorry I’ve been behaving like a jerk.”
The corners of her pretty mouth tilted upward. “Oh.” Dropping her arms, she shifted from one sneaker-clad foot to the next. “In that case, please, go on.”
“You’ve brought something to Shepard’s life that he’s never really had.”
Her brow puckered. “Such as…?”
“The way you interact with him. You treat him as if he’s special. That his thoughts and opinions matter.”
“That’s just common decency, Ryder. You know, the whole ‘do unto others.’”
“Yes, but he rarely got that from his mother.”
“What does that have to do with you behaving like a jerk?” One eyebrow arched in a playful manner.
He stretched out his arms before clasping his hands atop his head, knowing what he was about to say was going to make him look even worse.
“I was afraid he’d get attached to you only to be disappointed when you leave.” There, he said it.
