Christmas in the Cowboy's Arms

When a work incident pushes Detective Aubrey Cavanaugh back to her family's ranch in the Hill Country, all she craves is solitude with a trusty bottle of vodka--a remedy for her guilt and a respite for her mind.

Family, friends, and especially her ex-lover turned ranch foreman, Erich Harlan, are the last things she wants to confront.

Erich's plate is full managing the ranch in Aubrey's parents' absence, yet he can't ignore her obvious pain. Though she'd probably look anywhere else, he's determined to uncover the cause of her suffering and help her find relief.

Over a decade apart hasn't dimmed his ability to truly understand Aubrey. As they navigate her past and present struggles, Erich remains a constant support--the one who sees her, unfiltered.
