A Dandy for Doris — Donna K. Weaver

Widower Marshall Breckinridge is busy with his ranch and his two young daughters. How can a shy schoolmarm ever get his attention?

When rancher Marshall Breckinridge rescues Doris Lancaster from an attempted kidnapping, a spark alights in her, and she's convinced they're meant to be together. Unfortunately, the widower hasn't spoken to her since. It seems teaching his two young daughters is as close as Doris can get to the busy man.

Marshall Breckinridge has been running for ten years. First, from his autocratic father and then from the loss of his wife. With two beautiful daughters and a dude ranch to run, he'd thought he'd put women behind him. Then he'd held Doris in his arms to comfort her. Now he can't get her out of his mind. But he refuses to risk killing her timid sweetness with his forceful personality. Best to steer clear.

When his dandy cousin comes for a visit and sets his sights on Doris, Marshall will have to decide if he can stand to sit back and watch.
