In The Cowboy’s Little Surprise, my hero returns to town and receives…well…a big surprise!  But here’s his original motivation for coming home.  (FYI, Layne is his sister).

Late December. They met halfway between Cowboy Creek and the Texas ranch he was working.

For the first time since Cole had left town, they had spent Christmas together. They ate dinner in a nearly empty diner decorated with limp tinsel and faded ornaments. But the waitress wore a pin with a reindeer whose nose flashed like a small red strobe light and made his nephew laugh.

Layne, expecting another baby but already on the road to divorce, had done her best to smile.

The effort it took told him he needed to come back to Cowboy Creek.
