A HAWK'S WAY WEDDING The Groom: If single dad Billy Stonecreek didn't find himself a wife who was mother material, his snooty in-laws would take away his little twin daughters… But who'd marry a "no-good half-breed" like him? The Bride: Cherry Whitelaw had some reputation around Hawk's Way-and what better way to become a proper lady than to marry and be a mom? Surely her sexy husband-to-be would fall in love with her one day, right? The Marriage of Convenience: The two biggest troublemakers in Texas say "I do!"
