No Greater Gift

NO GREATER PASSION
When her mother Myra impulsively takes off with a cruise-ship Romeo, sensible Kira Dodd is stunned. Certain that Jimmy Jolivet is a womanizer of the worst sort, Kira heads for his Texas ranch, determined to bring Myra home for Christmas--and for good. Asking Jimmy's headstrong nephew Dylan for help seems like a good idea, since he's furious about Myra's outrageous plan to raise ostriches on the ranch. But when Kira finds herself fantasizing about the sexy cowboy she's known for only a few days, her mother's runaway love affair doesn't seem so crazy after all.

NO GREATER LOVE
Thanks to Myra Dodd, Dylan's lovestruck uncle plans to turn the Triple J Ranch into a zoo? When Kira swears she'll have her mother back in Chicago in two weeks, Dylan begins counting the days--until he realizes how often he counts on the spirited schoolteacher to make him smile. With the sparks between them as bright as Christmas lights, Dylan wants Kira to trade city life for a permanent stay at the ranch. If only he can convince her that love is the season's greatest gift.
