Christmas Card Cowboys: Book 2

Tessa Mitchell never meant to start a business. She just couldn’t resist a dare.

After one girls’ night, too many martinis, and one reckless promise, she publicly vows she can train her herd of mischievous miniature horses to pull a sleigh in Evergreen Springs’ Christmas parade. The entire town is betting she’ll fail. Tessa is determined to prove she’s more than the queen of half-finished plans.

The problem? Her mini horses would rather raid cookie trays and bolt through downtown than behave like Santa’s team.

When a mysterious Christmas card falls from the hayloft in her barn, it delivers something even more unexpected: a cowboy from 1878.

Cade Sullivan appears in her barn with a tipped Stetson and the quiet confidence of a man who knows horses, hard work, and responsibility. His calm strength is exactly what Tessa—and her unruly “reindeer”—need.

Tessa doesn’t believe in magic, time travel, or men who appear just when life starts to fall apart. But this Christmas, one reckless dare might lead to the greatest surprise of all: a love worth believing in.
