Molly

Sometimes love requires a leap of faith . . .Molly Hill refuses to become a spinster. At twenty-four, her prospects are limited. Fearing she'll be stuck working in her brother's store in Cañon City, Colorado--where every man sees her as a little sister--for the rest of her life, she decides a change of location is in order. Before she knows it, her mother has arranged for Molly to spend a few months with relatives in Denver. Surely a larger town will yield a marriageable man-or even two!Sheriff's Deputy Eli Jennings has been sweet on Molly for months, ever since he was charged with keeping her safe from the man who threatened her brother's store. But he's never had the courage to tell her how he feels. When his mother requests his help in Denver with a mysterious man who's been demanding repayment of unknown debts, Eli agrees. When he finds Molly on the same train, he hopes this will be the opportunity he's waited for. But after they arrive, it seems Molly has already found someone else. In fact, she's found an entire bevy of suitors.Molly suddenly has more attention than she can handle. Visiting with Eli is like a breath of fresh air. And better yet, she can help him with his mother's problem. After all, several of her new suitors are suspects in Eli's investigation. As they spend more time together, Molly realizes how much she cares for Eli. How had she never noticed how kind and handsome he was? None of the men in Denver can measure up to him, no matter how much money they might have. But Eli still can't seem to gather the courage to make his feelings known. He's on the verge of losing Molly to one of the men in Denver eager to marry her-any one of whom might be the man demanding money from Eli's mother. The more Eli pulls away in jealousy, the more Molly fears she might wind up trapped in a loveless marriage far from home-and far from the man she truly loves.Like all of Cat's books, Molly is a sweet and clean romance that will warm your heart and fill you with hope.
