Princess and the Ox

Erika Snowden was the envy of all the young ladies of her acquaintance. However, beneath her smiles and proper demeanor, Erika nursed a lonely heart. In her search for true love, she turns to the town’s most beloved man. However, her chance at happiness is threatened by her dominating grandfather’s disapproval and obvious dislike for her beloved’s brother, Jay Colby. So unlike his brother, Jay was the least favored man in town. Nicknamed Paul Bunyan by the locals, Erika however saw him more in the role of the ox. A large crude and obnoxious man. His blunt and rough-spoken tongue left no question as to his displeasure in her grandfather and in Erika, herself. However, Erika is startled to find herself drawn to the big burly man whose boorish behavior she discovers hides a pain that went far deeper than she could ever imagine. And would test her strength and heart against all she had come to believe.
