A Cowgirl's Christmas is an unexpected romance with a good twist on "weird will" that made a lot more sense than those "you have to marry to inherit" ones.
Callan Carrigan has always been at her father's side, running the Circle C ranch, after the death of their mother, and even after her sisters all moved away to start their own families. So it was no surprise that when her father died on the ranch of a heart attack, she was there as well. But she was totally shocked when the will was read... the ranch itself was left to a cousin, Court McAllister, and the bombshells kept coming. Her father had been sterile... and he left the ranch to the closest blood relative... and Callan ain't blood. Court knew the situation wasn't fair to Callan, and he offered her a compromise... stay on for a year, and he'll give her 50% of the ranch. And Callan decided to stay, as she can't imagine what she'll do without it. But can she stay past Christmas when she realized she likes Court?
This happens in Montana Winter, and it's another crazy will, even though this one made a LOT better explanation than others. The rest is basically "enemies to lovers".
