LOVE UNEXPECTED By Gwynn Morgan
When airline hostess Kate befriends a lonely child, she little dreams of the reward that will come her way. She soon learns that a good deed can bring unexpected surprises in the form of a love she never dared hope to find.
Janelle is determined to rescue her infant neice from the child's abusive father when her sister dies under doubious circumstances. A potential tragedy with a broken down car in a remote area brings an unexepcted result when she is rescued by a cowboy with a car seat!
Glimpsing blurred motion out of the corners of her eyes, she glanced up to see a pickup, several years old and a bit the worse for wear. Mud encrusted the bed and rusty spots marred the once bright metallic green paint.
"What's the problem, Ma'am? Need some help?"
With the mid-afternoon sun in her eyes and reflecting off the glass and chrome of both vehicles, she couldn't see much about the driver except he wore a broad brimmed hat and a bright striped shirt.
"I'm not sure," she admitted. "My car just suddenly stopped. I mean, the engine runs and all but it won't move."
"Let me take a look," the man said. He pulled up in front of her car, parked the pickup, and got out.
Wow, Jan thought. He's tall. He was also broad shouldered, and moved with an easy loose-hipped gait. He stopped to glance under the raised hood, gave a twitch or two to some of the wires and asked her to start it again. The results were still the same. He pushed his hat back and scratched his head for a moment. Then he gave her a crooked grin.

This book is actually two short stories.
Sarah and Her Angel Bear is about an airhostess who has just broken up with her husband. She is going home to her sister for Christmas and her kindness to a lonely child leads to love and happiness.
Cowboy with a car seat: Jan has stolen her dead sister's child to save her from a bullying father. When her car breaks down a cowboy comes to her rescue and perhaps the future looks brighter.
These stories are just right for a coffee break. It is nice to read happy, pleasant stories for a change. I enjoyed them both.
