Adelaide Proctor is a young woman with her head in the clouds, longing for a real-life storybook hero to claim as her own. But when a husband-hunting debacle leaves her humiliated, she interviews for a staid governess position on a central Texas sheep ranch and vows to leave her romantic yearnings behind. <br/><br/>When Gideon Westcott left his privileged life in England to make a name for himself in America''s wool industry, he never expected to become a father overnight. And five-year-old Isabella hasn''t uttered a word since she lost her mother. The unconventionality of the new governess concerns Gideon--and intrigues him at the same time. But he can''t afford distractions. He has a ranch to run, a shearing to oversee, and a suspicious fence-cutting to investigate. <br/><br/>When Isabella''s uncle comes to claim the child--and her inheritance--Gideon and Adelaide must work together to protect Isabella from the man''s evil schemes. And soon neither can deny their growing attraction.
