The Sheriff Takes a Bride

Sheriff Joaquin Obregon has spent the last year in a mountain sanatorium, recovering from an assault that cost him his fiancée and livelihood. He hates what his life has become but can't seem to find a way to break free. Until a nurse who never liked him decides to make his resurrection her mission. Mary Margaret McCallahan spent a childhood in the slums of New York—being a respected nurse at the most famous sanatorium in California should be ambition enough. But Mae has even bigger dreams, ones that require her to head for the lights of Los Angeles. Before she goes, she's determined to rouse one handsome, arrogant sheriff out of his sickbed and back into the world. Joaquin can't imagine leaving. Mae is determined to go. The battle lines are drawn—and only love can win.
