Description:

Mail-order bride Rebecca Ramsey arrives in the New Mexico territory full of dreams-but they're shattered when she discovers her intended husband has been killed. If it weren't for U.S. marshal Seth Billings's housekeeping job offer, she'd have nowhere to go. Rebecca loves tending to Seth's home, but the strong and silent lawman is harder to figure out. What secret is he hiding?

Caring for Jesse Cole's would-be bride is the least Seth can do. If it weren't for him, the young man would still be alive. Seth had promised to look after Rebecca-and to keep her safe from Jesse's enemies. Now if only he can keep his heart safe, as well...

Book Takeaway:

Love doesn't always come in the manner we expected.

Why the author wrote this book:

I have always loved mail-order bride books and wanted to write one.

  2. Sounds like a great book, Rhonda. I've heard of mail-order bride themes before, but never in New Mexico. What made you decide to set your story there?

  3. Thanks Elizabeth,

    I've lived in New Mexico for 21 years and haven't seen a lot of romance novels set here. New Mexico is rich in history and mail-order bride stories is a theme that I love. So it made since to me to combine the two.
