Groom by Agreement
A real home–it’s what Vienna Howe dearly wants for her young daughter. Yet the ramshackle property she just inherited hardly qualifies. She can’t afford the repairs–until foreman West McCall suggests they start a dude ranch together. For propriety’s sake, they’ll need a marriage in name only…a practical solution for two wary hearts.
Years ago, West convinced Vienna to marry a man of means, never realizing how cruel her husband could be. Guilt-ridden, he intends to secure the lovely widow’s future. But despite his reluctance to get close to anyone, this union might do more than fix Vienna’s ranch. It could open the door to a warm, loving future…

In My Opinion (Review)
I seem to be reading a lot of books with children in them lately, but man can those little ones add to a story!
Vienna Howe was introduced in Stacy Henrie’s The Rancher’s Temporary Engagement (see below for details on that read), and I really enjoyed getting to read her story. A woman who endured one horrific marriage to a man who hid his true self from her until after the vows were said, Vienna is determined not to live that life again. But she longs for a home for her and her daughter. West McCall has vowed to protect Vienna after he failed so miserably years ago.
Henry shares some history of the concept of a dude ranch in A Cowboy of Convenience, including those credited with starting the first one and a little history, but the meat of this story is in Vienna’s hidden strength and the push and pull between her and West. And of course, little Hattie who adds so much adorableness, you can’t help but grin when she steals a scene.
As West and Vienna wrestle with their individual need for home, family, and belonging, they strike a deal that is mutually beneficial for both of them. But they soon discover they want more than what the initial bargain entails.

I don’t think you could go wrong with a cute little girl and a hunky cowboy in the story. It sounds like an enjoyable book.
Cool – a female Pinkerton agent. Sounds intriguing. Love the cover.
So glad you enjoyed the book! Thanks for reading and reviewing it!
