Head in the Clouds
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.
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.
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. But after so many heartbreaks, will
Adelaide be willing to get her head out of the clouds and put her
heart on the line?
