After posting three books in my Romance on the Ranch Series, the last one being Baby Kisses, I knew I had to post Candy Kisses. The reason is because books three and four are intricately intertwined and I'm positive that the heroine selected for Candy Kisses, first introduced in Baby Kisses, will shock most readers. Let me know if I'm right. This book is dedicated to those who have suffered taunts from bullies. Special Thanks: Alicia for her email inspiring me to continue this series, Silvia for her email suggesting the heroine for this story, Jaime for putting the "Drops" in ChocoDrops, Felicia for her wonderful proofreading skills and encouragement.
