A Redemption Mountain Christmas by Shirleen Davies

A Clean and Wholesome Enemies to Lovers Historical Western Romance

She’s an ambitious woman doctor new to the frontier.
He’s a rugged ranch hand with no time for a greenhorn.
It’s going to be a Christmas to remember!

Spencer Haglund is comfortable with his station in life. A ranch hand at Redemption’s Edge Ranch, he’s worked his way up the ranks to be one of their top cowboys. Setting a little money aside each month, he hopes to buy his own place one day. For now, his life is simple and uncomplicated. Until his path crosses with a woman stranded in Splendor. A woman whose bearing and demeanor signal nothing but trouble.

Eliza Gladstone fought disdain and bias during medical school and afterward while practicing in New York. Believing acceptance might be found out west, she sets out with a destination in mind and little understanding of the frontier. Being stranded in a small frontier town isn’t in her plan. Neither is coming across a stoic ranch hand who takes an instant dislike to her.

Receiving an invitation to visit the largest ranch in western Montana, she begins to see the stark differences between her life and the typical day breaking horses in the rugged frontier winter. However, another encounter with the arrogant ranch hand further solidifies her original decision to continue on to San Francisco when the weather clears.

A series of threats to the ranch and the town throw Spencer and Eliza together, even as they try to put distance between them. When a wagon train, slowed by a snowstorm, is attacked, Eliza joins the town doctors to help those wounded, cracking Spencer’s rigid dislike of her.

As Christmas approaches and their connection grows, Eliza finds herself facing a surprising decision. Accept the position as a doctor at the clinic and build a life in Splendor, or continue on, leaving the friends she’s made and the growing feelings between her and Spencer behind.

A Redemption Mountain Christmas, book twenty-seven in the Redemption Mountain historical western romance series, is a full-length, clean and wholesome novel with an HEA and no cliffhanger.
