      The Cowboy’s Christmas Reunion

      A Lone Star Legacy romance

      Determined to restore the historic buildings in Clear Water, Texas, Jackie Bergmann needs permission from the property’s new owner—her ex-boyfriend. And though Max Delgado agrees to give her access, he has one request: that she help him care for his orphaned brothers. But when she starts to fall for Max again, can she convince him not to sell his family’s ranch...and stay home for Christmas and forever?

      A seventh-generation Texan, JOLENE NAVARRO fills her life with family, faith and life’s beautiful messiness. She knows that as much as the world changes, people stay the same: vow-keepers and heartbreakers. Jolene married a vow-keeper who shows her holding hands never gets old. When not writing, Jolene teaches art to inner-city teens and hangs out with her own four almost-grown kids. Find Jolene on Facebook or her blog, jolenenavarrowriter.com.

      “Why am I here?”

      “Every small town needs a good-looking cowboy.” Jackie grinned. “Plus, you’re famous to boot. I’m sure the tourists would love to meet a real bull rider.”

      Max’s jaw tightened. “Yeah, that was my father’s thought, too.” The man had ignored him until he started making a name in the PBR circuit. All of a sudden, Max was good for business.

      He stuffed his hands into his pockets. “I’m going. Tomas needs to rest, and we still have a bunch of stuff to do at the ranch.” He turned to leave.

      “Max.” She caught up with him before he made it outside. “I was just teasing. I didn’t mean to upset you. Most people don’t mind being called good-looking.”

      He saw concern in her eyes. Riding bulls was so much easier than dealing with life.

      He feared she saw the weakness in him.

      The truth of who he was.

      Dear Reader,

      Life can take us to places we never planned or imagined. And at times we are unable to get what we think we want, but God has us. He is always there, waiting to heal all hurts.

      Jackie and Max’s story is a romance, but it is also about relationships with parents, sisters and brothers. Family helps shape who we are—the good, the bad and the painful.

      And sometimes the hardest part in life is accepting forgiveness for yourself.

      I hope you enjoyed the time with Max and Jackie along with all their siblings. Nikki and Adrian’s story is in Texas Daddy, and you can find Danica and Reid in The Texan’s Twins.

      I have enjoyed these trips to Clear Water, Texas. Thank you for coming along.

      I love chatting with readers. You can find me on Facebook at Jolene Navarro, Author, or drop me a note at Jolene Navarro c/o Love Inspired Books, 195 Broadway, 24th Floor, New York, NY 10007.

      Blessings,

      Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;

      and lean not unto thine own understanding.

      In all thy ways acknowledge him,

      and he shall direct thy paths.
