The Littlest Cowboy (The Texas Brand #1) by Maggie Shayne



Blurb:

Baby on his Doorstep!
Sheriff Garrett Brand has raised his entire brood of siblings single-handedly, and he’s done his best to teach them some values, to mold them into honorable, responsible, and trustworthy human beings. So when a baby lands on the doorstep of the Texas Brand, his first question is which younger brother is in for a butt-kicking? But the little fellow isn't named after Ben, or Wes, or Adam, or Elliot. The little feller is named after him – Garrett Ethan Brand–according to the note his mama left behind.
He’s still racking his brain to figure it all out, when a woman shows up at the ranch in the dead of night, spitting, fighting mad, and accusing Garrett of murdering her sister and stealing the baby!
Chelsea is confused, heartbroken, and too mad to think straight, and the same trouble that found her poor sister is right on her tail. But of all the places she and the baby could've wound up, Garrett thinks this ranch is the best one.
Because this is one family that knows how to pull together and trouble doesn't stand a chance against The Brands of Texas.

My review:

A fun found baby story that introduces you to the Brand family.  This book stars the oldest brother and town Sheriff, Garrett Brand.  Garrett is a gentle giant who raised his four brothers and baby sister after their parents died when he was 17.  He is super careful about not creating babies so he is confused when a baby shows up on his doorstep with his name.  He is even more confused when a New York spitfire lands on his doorstep accusing him of murdering the baby’s mother.  Together Garrett and Chelsea discover who the real father is and what happened to the baby’s mother Chelsea’s sister.  It is a dangerous, often funny, road that brings them together.
This was an Amazon freebie designed to make you want to get to know the rest of the Brands and it worked.  I just bought the second in the series.
