The Texas Rancher's Marriage (2012)
“Addie was already sitting at the table, dressed, restless and ready to go.
“Trouble sleeping?” Merri asked sympathetically.
She dipped her head in acknowledgment. “Guess I slept too much on the flight home. Going out to take care of your herd?”

“Want some help?”

“I’ve done it the old-fashioned way—by hand.”MoreLess
