AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Abducted and forced to marry at gunpoint, Pearl Hopkins is held captive until her outlaw husband is killed in a gunfight.

'With nowhere else to turn, she decides to become a mail order bride, unaware she is pregnant with her dead husband's baby.

'Sheriff Alex Farley is lonely, but more importantly, he wants a wife to cook and clean house. He would not be averse to a little brood of Farley's. With no prospects locally, he advertises for a mail order bride.

'After returning from a long and arduous assignment, he finds his bride has already arrived and settled into his home.

'Will Alex accept Pearl and her baby, or will he turn them away? If the marriage does go ahead, will he ever be able to trust her?

'Author's Promise: This is a heartwarming historical novella with a happily ever after ending and no cliffhangers. It is a clean and wholesome story with nothing more than hugs, kisses, and holding hands.'
