Cowboy’s Haven by Ella Cooper

Trouble always follows her
Bentley wants to protect her.
But the protection she needs is to be loved…
Forever.

When Mandy Hawkins’s abusive, drunk, gambling husband, Jonathan, dies in an accident, she thinks her life will finally improve, and his ranch will finally be the haven it has always promised to be. To secure a future for herself and her son, all she has to do is protect the ranch.
However, Mark Pennington, an old pervert, has his eye on both her and the ranch. He harasses Mandy about her husband’s debts and vows to stop at nothing until the young widow and her ranch are in his hands.
If Mandy doesn’t want that to happen, she has no alternative but to ask help from Bentley Hawkins, Jonathan’s younger brother whom she has not met.
Bentley swore he’d never step foot on the ranch again when his mother gave everything to Jonathan, but when he meets Jonathan’s widow, he changes his mind. The ranch now offers something more than a cowboy’s life.
Mandy worries when Bentley accepts her request to protect the ranch. She fears Bentley, who was once jailed for manslaughter could be more abusive than her husband.
But, he’s the only one who can protect her and her son.
Will this cowboy remain reluctant to love his brother’s widow, or will he offer her a cowboy’s haven?
