The Bachelor's Baby Promise

Country singing star Amanda Smith was seeking a refuge from the busy concert schedule when she finds the perfect hide-away in the Sierra Nevada mountains. The only problem is neighbor Mac Mackenzie who's had his eye on that patch of land for years. When he can't bribe her to leave, he changes tactics. The only problem is it becomes hard to tell if he's trying to drive her away, or convince her to stay.

When Kalli Bonotelli inherits a ranch in Wyoming, she immediately leaves Boston for the west and a new life. She's spent summers here as a teenager and always dreamed of running the ranch. However, she hasn't a clue how to start. When neighbor Trace Longford offers to buy her ranch, she turns the offer into a chance to learn what she can about operating a profitable cattle ranch. Only Trace doesn't believe she can stay the course--or learn enough to run the place. Despite their differences, one thing they have in common--an unexpected intense attraction to each other.

When Trace tries to teach her the ins and outs of ranching, he's handicapped by the way his mind keeps imagining taking her to bed instead of teaching her how to brand a calf.

Kalli wants it all, the ranch and Trace. But can they ever agree on anything? Or will she give up her dream and return to Boston with the memory of the sexy cowboy the only thing she takes with her?
