Guardianship awarded to Jed and Rachell Doulan.
“I hope you don’t mind jumping right into motherhood,” Jed said. “I left a rather tall kid up at the house who could sure use some mothering.”
“He’s well?” she asked, having fretted about June’s health since Jed left.
“He’s healing, and ornery as sin, but he’s ours.”
Ours. Nothing could have meant more to her as she stared into the warm, generous eyes gazing down at her. She’d so wanted to be Jed’s bride, and he’d surpassed her dreams, giving her a family. She had never loved him more.
“God,” Jed whispered. “I’d do anything to make your eyes sparkle like that.”
She reached up, hugging him close. “Then promise you’ll never leave me again.”
He lifted her against him and kissed her lips. “Oh, you’re stuck with me, Imp. I should have known better than to argue with Running Bear and his damn visions.”
Laughter danced from Rachell’s lips as he kissed her. “Does that mean you’re my fearless brave?”
“You’re damn right I am. And you are the light of my soul.”
