Little Cowgirl Needs a Mum / Once Upon a Proposal: Little Cowgirl Needs a Mum

“Evan, are you okay?” Jenny asked.

“No. My own daughter is afraid to come to me.”

“A lot of children go to their mother first.”

“Did you?” Suddenly, he remembered Jenny saying her mother was too busy for her. “Or did you have to fight your own battles? How did you handle bullies?”

She shrugged. “I guess I did a lot of my own fighting.”

“What about your dad?”

She glanced away. “He was never in my life.”

His gut tightened as she tried to seem nonchalant, but he knew it mattered to her. “Well, I’m not going to let Aaron the bully get any more out of control. He has no right picking on little girls.” His fists clenched. “I plan to have a talk with this kid.”

“Whoa, Rafferty. As a teacher myself, I can tell you it isn’t wise to go running off half-cocked. Talk to Gracie’s teacher first. Better yet, to Lily Perry. She’ll look into the situation, then, if that doesn’t help, set up a meeting with the boy’s parents.”
