For the Sake of His Children
A marriage of convenience? Rachel Hewitt couldn’t possibly accept. Not even for the sake of three adorable little girls who desperately want a new mother. Sheriff Tristan McCullough offers Rachel a home and family, but not the one thing she truly seeks—someone to love her for herself.
Tristan McCullough hoped to find a wife on the wagon train, not a nanny. The hardworking widower wants a marriage without emotional risks. But independent Rachel intrigues him. One minute she’s winning over his shy little girls, and the next she’s tackling danger head-on. She might just be Tristan’s unexpected second chance at happiness…if he’ll risk his wary heart again.
Journey West: Romance and adventure await three siblings on the Oregon Trail
“I could help you with your daughters.”
Tristan turned to face Rachel, smiled. “That’s what I came to discuss with you.”
So, he had followed her. She’d suspected as much. But just to be clear…
“You followed me out here to talk about your girls?”
He went very still and studied her face with that intensity she found so disconcerting, as if he were trying to look into the depths of her soul. “In a manner of speaking.”
She swallowed. This wasn’t supposed to be so hard. What she had to offer made sense for all of them. “So you agree I should take over for Bertha.”
“No.”
No? She waited for him to expand on that. When he didn’t she blinked at him in confusion. That’s it, she thought. Just…no. Not a single word of explanation?
She blew out a frustrated puff of air. “You realize I’m offering to take care of your daughters. It’s the perfect solution. I adore them. I’m pretty confident they like me.”
He was already shaking his head before she finished stating her case.
She frowned at him. “I don’t understand your refusal. You need help immediately. I’m available.”
“I had a more permanent solution in mind.”
Oh. Oh.
