Book Blurb for Their Tangled Hearts by
Mary DeWeber
Emma
had spent the last five years learning to cope with tragedy. She
should have known that Doc had something up his sleeve when he'd
talked her into taking a cooking job at a Colorado cattle ranch.
Cooking was the easy part. Working with disabled children was
something she was decidedly not prepared for. Throw in a tall dark
mountain of a man with a voice like warm velvet and she was
completely over her head! It would take God to straighten out the
tangled mess she had made of her life.
Excerpt
“I’m
s-so s-sorry.” Emma stammered.
“Don’t
be,” the man smiled. “Do you have nightmares often?”
“They’re
not usually this bad.” Suddenly cold, she shivered and clutched the
blanket to her chest. Confusion colored her voice as she asked.
“How-?”
“I
came in late last night and couldn't sleep. I was on my front porch
waiting for sunrise when I heard you scream.” Smiling he held up
his hands. “It’s a good thing I still have the key or I’m
afraid I would have broken the door down.”
While
he spoke he got up from the side of the bed and moved to a chair. For
the first time she saw he was wearing an open jacket and flannel
shirt. No wonder he had felt so warm and comforting.
“You
must be Emma. I heard about you from Sue, when I called last evening
to see if she needed anything from town before I headed out.”
She
realized that he’d deliberately been talking to give her some
much-needed breathing space, in which to gather her wits.
When
he reached out his hand, Emma didn't hesitate to place hers into it.
“I’m Sue’s brother Jake Peterson,” he introduced himself
formally, as he politely shook her hand.
“It’s
nice to meet you Mr. Peterson,” she said automatically. “I’m
Emma Winters.”
As
Emma sat looking up at him, she was suddenly struck by the absurdity
of the situation. A bubble of nervous laughter welled up from some
secret place deep inside and surprised her by escaping.
Jake,
determining she was not hysterical, grinned and soon they were both
laughing.
