Abigail - Nancy Fraser - Bog

At twenty-six years old, Abigail Willoughby is an accomplished artist, and the only child of a rich Texas cattleman. About to be married off in a business merger between her father and their closest neighbor, Abigail flees the only home she's ever known with little more than twenty dollars to her name, and her belief that the Almighty will watch over her wherever she goes. Randall (Rand) McIver, thirty-three, is a scarred veteran of the Colorado territorial wars. All he wants is to be left alone to rebuild the ranch inherited from his late uncle, a beloved Christian minister who spent more time tending his flock than his ranch. Abigail arrives in the small town of Cripple Creek, Colorado, with the intention of finding good, honest work to support herself. However, the only one hiring is the grumpy rancher who needs a housekeeper and cook for his rundown spread. Problem is, she's been raised in the lap of luxury and has no idea how to do either job. Will Abigail be able to convince Rand to give her a chance to learn, while she secretly attempts to restore the faith he knew as a child?
