I grabbed this book off my gigantic TBR pile and was pleasantly surprised. Of course it's about a cowboy, but this one is in Idaho and he was a buckaroo, not a cowboy. A woman in a wheelchair comes to town with her wanna-be-a-roper son and she begins teaching in the small town. She notices that one student, a young girl, has a talent for drawing but certainly isn't interested in writing or reading. The teacher insists on speaking to her father (enter the cowboy, er, buckaroo) and from there, things begin to progress quickly.
The teacher, in the midst of trouble, is able to walk several steps from her wheelchair (she'd been in a car accident and her doctor said she may get feeling back in her legs someday) and happiness ensues.
It's a good read. I'd recommend it. It wasn't overly sexual (hallelujah - sometimes I don't want to read about sex every two pages) and of course there's a happy ending.

Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be--
I had a mother who read to me."
