Synopsis

Fleeing a broken engagement, Elthia Sinclare traveled to Texas to become a governess. She arrived to find six children, not two, a man who had ordered a bride, not a teacher: and a household that needed someone to cook and clean, not read Latin. But the one thing worse than marrying Caleb Tanner was returning home in defeat, so the former socialite said "I do," rolled up her sleeves and went to work - burning meals, flooding the kitchen... loving the children. And butting heads with her new spouse. Until Elthia realized she had learned how to stand on her own two feet and had fallen head over heels for her handsome husband. Now, her biggest challenge lay in convincing the stubborn Texan their arrangement was something more than a way for him to adopt his orphaned nieces and nephews, something more than just a temporary marriage. It was a union of two soul mates.
