The Mechanics of Mistletoe: Glover Family Saga & Christian Romance (Shiloh Ridge Ranch in Three Rivers Romance™ Book 1)

He’s a gruff rancher with a heart of gold. She’s the town’s most independent mechanic. When disaster strikes their small town this holiday season, can they learn that being strong means knowing when to lean on faith—and each other? Bear Glover is a man of contradictions—part grizzly, part teddy bear, and fully committed to his family’s legacy at Shiloh Ridge Ranch. He’s spent years admiring Samantha “Sammy” Benton from afar, but when their long-awaited first date ends in a spectacular disaster, Bear is sure he’s blown his one shot at love. He retreats to his homestead, resigned to the quiet life of a lonely cowboy. But when three devastating tornadoes tear through the heart of Three Rivers, Bear’s only thought is for Sammy. Sammy Benton doesn’t have time for a broken heart. Between repairing engines, caring for her aging parents, and raising her orphaned nephew, Lincoln, she is the glue holding her world together. She prides herself on her strength, but the storms have left her life in ruins and her eight-year-old nephew with nowhere to go while she tries to rebuild. When Bear steps in, offering Lincoln a place at the ranch and mobilizing his resources to repair her home, Sammy’s instinct is to push him away. She’s spent a lifetime being the provider, and accepting help feels like a failure. As the Christmas season approaches and the town of Three Rivers rallies to recover, Bear and Sammy are brought together in a mission of hope that challenges everything they thought they knew about independence. Through the wreckage of the storms, Sammy must realize that the Lord provides help so we don’t have to carry the weight alone. Will Sammy surrender her pride to find a second chance at love, or will her fear of being weak cost her a future with the only man who truly sees her heart? Escape to Shiloh Ridge Ranch for a heartwarming Christian cowboy romance about faith, family, and the resilience of a small town.
