Welcome to Crystal Creek, Texas

If this is your first visit to the friendly ranching town in the Texas hill country, get ready to meet some unforgettable people. If you've been here before, you'll recognize old friends…and make some new ones.

The principals pregnant…Lucia Osborne knows that her condition–she's about to become a single mother–will have the townfolk of Crystal Creek gossiping. And some members of the school board will use her "mistake" to have her fired.

Lucia is also aware that hiring cowboy Jim Whitley to teach the difficult seventh graders is going to get her into more trouble. But when she sees how the kids respond to Jim, Lucia knows he's the right man for the job. Could he also be the right man for her…and her child?
