Leftovers, Anyone? New Western Frontier Romance Out!

Happy (almost) spring! Just popping in to celebrate the launch of Leftover Mail-Order Bride, the second book in my Frontier Brides series, set in the 1870s in Washington Territory.

What’s a mail-order bride to do when she’s left at the altar?

Victoria Milford had spent much of her life caring for ailing relatives, so it wasn’t a stretch to agree to marry a near-stranger in Washington Territory for a chance at a life of her own. But the man who had proposed marriage wed another while she was enroute. The local minister’s wife assures her that bachelors abound on the frontier. Surely it isn’t too much to ask that one might prefer Victoria?

The leader of the family ranch, Jack Willets is determined not to let his parents’ insistence on finding true love sway him. What he needs in a bride is a lady who can work beside him. When the local minister’s wife introduces him to Victoria, he’s immediately drawn to her sweet nature. But can a city girl ever really feel comfortable in the country?

Between a boisterous, matchmaking family and dozens of other suitors chasing after Victoria, she and Jack may have their hands full as they discover being leftover just means the perfect love can come along.

And Suddenly, We Have a Mail-Order Bride!

Hello, my dears! I’m delighted to report that the first book in my new Frontier Brides series is out! This series is set close to my home, on Hawks Prairie outside of Olympia, Washington, in the mid-1800s. It’s been so much fun to write about places I can go see and walk around! And having a large family in the picture is even more fun!

The charming Jeremy Willets thought writing away for a mail-order bride a wise decision. He just had to find a way to break it to his family. They valued true love, after all. True love wasn’t so easy to find in a frontier territory where men outnumbered the women eight to one. He never expected the woman with whom he was corresponding to show up at the door of his family’s ranch, unannounced and ready for a wedding.

Spunky Caroline Cadhill staked everything on finding a groom as far away from Cincinnati as possible. The letters Jeremy sent her seemed heartfelt and witty. Yet he hadn’t made a commitment. With danger threatening and her brother vanished, her only choice had been to run, right into Jeremy’s arms. Now she isn’t sure which is more dangerous, the men chasing her or the smile of her cowboy would-be groom.

Between a boisterous matchmaking family and a threat from her past, Caroline and Jeremy will have their hands full. But if they persevere, they may find their sudden romance turning into a forever love.
