As hard as the land he works, rancher Eben MacCallister has devoted his life-and sacrificed his happiness-to make his ranch profitable. Now with an unscroupulous banker threatening to foreclose on his land, Eben can only hope that his late sister has left him the money she took years ago before she abandoned him. But the inheritqance tuns out to be a far cry from what he expected: four hungary kids with enough sass, energy and questions to make ranching look easy...

Maggie knew she shouldn't laugh, but the sight of Eben trying to feed a squaking baby while coralling three more untamed little ones is poetic justice. Once, Maggie hoped to raise kids of their own with Eben...before life hardened his heartand turned them from lovers in sparring partners. But at Christmas, wishes have a way of coming true, and hearts have a way of healing-especially when love is waiting patiently under the tree.
