Two hearts meant to be together; One secret bound to rip them apart. Chase Logan liked being a loner, a drifter, free and clear as amountain stream. But one look into Jessie Strong's sky blue eyes and in the span of a heartbeat, he found himself agreeing to be her husband-and a father! Jessie Strong knew it was all pretend. And only temporary. Just until the adoption went through for three-year-old Sarah. But the longer Chase stayed, the less she could imagine a long, lonely Wyoming winter without him. Times may be tough-supplies short and danger just outside the doorstep-but with the strength of the pioneer spirit and the warm glow of love in their hearts, Chase and Jessie are determined to have a true family at last, no matter WHERE THE WIND BLOWS.

A COWBOY'S PROPOSAL

The silence stretched between them.

Jessie stepped over to the bed and pulled up the covers. She patted and fluffed until Chase cleared his throat.

"I've been circling this thing for hours. All night, in fact," Chase said with a sigh.

"I can't believe this is happening now after you were so good to come back to help me. For nothing. For nothing at all. This is what you get in return for your kindness."

With a glance, Chase interrupted her. "I couldn't help hearing your conversation with Mrs. Hollyhock. You don't really like being forced into this sham, any more than I do. But I don't want to see you lose Sarah, either. And even more, I don't want Sarah to lose you. I've become fond of her, and the thought of her being motherless after just being reunited. It's not something I want haunting me."

"Chase, I can't let you do this," Jessie said. "I'll work it out myself, somehow."

"Let me finish." Again Chase was struck by how young she was, and by all the hardships she'd already faced alone. "I think I have an answer that can work for both of us." He paused to think the idea through his head one more time. "We'll get married today."

Reviews: What people are saying!

“WHERE THE WIND BLOWS is a wonderful western romance with a Shane like hero who knows he should ride off into sunset but keeps delaying what he thinks is the inevitable. Jessie and Sarah are terrific as they both cherish and shower Chase with love and affection while the mom fears a broken heart for her but is more frightened by the impact on her adopted daughter when he leaves as she expects him to do. Caroline Fyffe provides sub-genre fans with a great tale.”  ~~Harriet Klausner -The Merry Genre Go Round Reviews

“Ms. Fyffe has crafted a well written tender tale that will leave you with a warm smile and a renewed faith in love and getting through it all.”  ~~Night Owl Romance Review

“This debut novel by Caroline Fyffe is a tender romance that celebrates not only love but also the sense of community that is needed to support that love.  One unforgettable character in that community is the proprietress of the mercantile, Mrs. Hollyhock, who will have you laughing as well as knowingly shaking your head as she becomes Jessica’s self-appointed grandmother, much to Chase’s chagrin.  With well-drawn characters Ms. Fyffe gives readers a treat as sweet and satisfying as the cocoa Mrs. Hollyhock serves her guests.” -Carol - Reviewer for Love Western Romance Book Reviews

"A sweet Americana western with inspirational overtones, Fyffe's debut is a charming and touching tale. Here is the type of story readers reach for when they need to be uplifted." -Romantic Times Magazine
