A stern but loving Daddy might be just what the doctor ordered...Owen Pierce is a doctor in the Alaskan bush, and he's about to get one step closer to the wilderness life he loved as a child. He's planning to move out to the island of Enclave in short order. But before he can wave goodbye to his life in town, a troubled Little girl who pushes all his Daddy buttons lands in his lap. Cricket Evelyn Baker came to the frozen tundra of Alaska from the cornfields of Nebraska, hoping to find a homestead to call her own. What she found instead was a bleak cubicle and a broken heart. Not all who wander are lost, but there's no guarantee that these two seekers will find a Happily Ever After with each other. When Owen finds Cricket sobbing in a stairwell, will it be the start of a match made in the rugged Alaskan outback or the lastest in a string of disappointments? Daddy’s Little Patient is a standalone novel in the Frontier Daddies series. It features a sweet but sad Little girl longing for the heartland and a Daddy to give her heart to, and a man who hears the call of the wild but also wants a Little girl who will follow Doctor's very strict orders to claim as his own.
