THE COWBOY'S HEALING WAYS by Brenda Minton

Laura White lost custody of her daughter after being wrongfully convicted of a drug crime. All she wants to do is get her daughter back and make a life with her. But before she can do that she needs a job and a home. She decides to seek help from an aunt in Dawson. On her way there she almost runs into to Myrna Cooper with her car. Myrna takes her straight to Dr. Jesse Cooper, her grandson. When learning her story, Jesse hires her as housekeeper for his ranch and wants to help her get her daughter back permanently. The attraction is strong but Laura doesn't trust easily and Jesse is planning a year long trip to the mission field. The Lord knows the plans He has for them. Will they figure out what they are?

Another wonderful installment in the Cooper Creek Series. I just LOVE the Cooper family!!! I love watching how all the Cooper's interact with each other and tease each other but they are as loyal as they come. I got to know Jesse when I read The Rancher's Secret Wife and was anxious to hear his story. He's such a neat guy who has a great deal of inner strength. Jesse is a planner though who lives by his plan. But he didn't plan on Laura or her daughter. Sometimes the Lord has to remind us that though we plan our ways, it's He who directs our steps. Laura was a great leading lady. She's strong yet finds leaning on Jesse is something she could easily get used to. One character I just love is Myrna. She's a tough and spunky but very sweet lady who looks out for all her grandchildren! There is also a little suspense involved with Laura's stepbrother, which was great! I'm looking forward to my next trip to Dawson to hang out with the Coopers! Would ya like to join me?
