Jinglebell Jane

A young beauty with a reputation for trouble, a clever cowboy plotting her arrest, and an unexpected attraction to complicate things...

Jane Sherrington is the sister of one of the most notorious outlaws in the west. Captured during a massive roundup, she is the key to bringing the cunning and dangerous Hunter Sherrington to justice. There's only one problem: The lawmen in Headstone, Arizona can't seem to pin a single indictment on the lovely little sharp-shooter, so they release her into the care of a local attorney and former mail-order bride, Felicity Barra.

Felicity's youngest brother-in-law, Dodge, is the first to lay eyes on their infamous houseguest when the sheriff delivers her to their ranch home. He is inexplicably drawn to her air of innocence, but he knows better than to trust appearances. Anyone with the last name of Sherrington spells trouble. Realizing it is only a matter of time before her brother attempts to break her out of custody, he slyly befriends her, fully intending to help build a case against the siblings that will lead to their arrest.

Jane's request for Dodge to serve as her tutor comes as a surprise. She has considerable lost time to make up for after five years on the road with a posse of bad hombres. And from what he can tell, she has never had a real friend...like him. As Christmas approaches, he finds himself torn between family loyalties, the call of justice, and his growing attraction to the brave and spirited young woman he teasingly calls Jinglebell Jane.
