It had been so long since she’d had a family. And she couldn’t believe she’d had to come to the Colorado mountains to find them.

To find her.

Her man. Her life.

Her very own Daddy.

“Alice, come here, baby. There is one more gift for you,” he told her, patting the sofa.

“What? You’ve already given me so much.” There were things for her Little like onesies and tutus. Some coloring books and pens. A really soft blanket. And even some mouse slippers.

She didn’t have as many gifts for him. But she had convinced him to let her go shopping on her own in town to get things for everyone.

But she sat next to him and took the gift he handed her. It was wrapped in gold paper. She sucked in a breath. The one she’d seen last night. What was in it?

“It only arrived with Lochlan yesterday. I had to wrap it quickly.”

Pulling off the paper, she opened up a small velvet bag, gasping as she drew out some jewelry. “Mom’s jewelry. How . . . how did you?”

“Anson asked me to get someone to go to the pawn shop and get it,” Lochlan told her. “They sent it to me. We were lucky to get it in time.”

“Thank you,” she told Lochlan before turning to Anson. “I can’t believe you did this. I can’t believe I have it back.”

“I’d do anything for you, babygirl. Anything and everything. Forever.”
