The Rancher's Improper Governess

A Historical Western Romantic Comedy

De: Susan Leigh Carlton

He needed someone to civilize his children.
He did not expect her to try to civilize him.
When Boston governess Eleanor “Nell” Grayson answers an advertisement for a position in Wind River, Wyoming, she imagines order, routine, and a respectable household in need of refinement. What she finds instead is a sprawling cattle ranch ruled by mud, mischief, and a widowed rancher who has long since abandoned anything resembling propriety.
Hank Mercer has three unruly children, a house that runs on chaos, and no patience for Eastern manners. He hired a governess out of desperation—not expectation. The last thing he needs is a woman correcting his grammar, reorganizing his life, and insisting that cattle drives are not appropriate educational outings.
Nell is determined to bring structure, discipline, and a touch of civilization to the Mercer household.
The Mercer household has other plans.
From disastrous “lessons” applied to ranch hands, to formal dinners that end in catastrophe, to a town increasingly entertained by the battle between refinement and reality, Nell’s efforts to improve life at the ranch result in one mishap after another. And yet, somehow, the children begin to thrive… the house begins to function… and Hank begins to see that the woman turning his world upside down may be exactly what it needed.
As order and chaos collide in the most public—and hilarious—ways, Nell and Hank must decide whether a proper life is worth having… or whether something far more imperfect—and far more real—is waiting for them both.
In Wind River, even the best intentions rarely go as planned… and love seldom follows the rules.
