Deke Travers, her new boss hadn't given her much of a chance to tell him the truth, or that she had a baby. He'd hired her as a cook and housekeeper for the 4 Bar None Ranch. Meanwhile Deke had problems of his own. He had to find a way to settle his restless brothers down and get with the business of ranching. As far as he could see, there was only one way to do it. He'd have to marry them off to country gals. And Emma was a good start in that direction... Trouble was every time he looked into those whiskey brown eyes of hers, he forgot his own plan.
