Six
mail-order brides.
One exasperating preacher.
And a fiery chaperone who swore she’d never fall in love.

temper. Add in the ever-gossiping “Busy Bees” and a funeral-hungry undertaker,
and Val isn’t sure she’ll survive twelve chaotic days leading up to Christmas.
But when Christmas Eve arrives, she must decide if she’s only passing through…

she’s been searching for.

By
Linda Carroll-Bradd
Kelci Odell yearns to be a newspaper
reporter and is caught upstairs at a saloon, dressed as a man. Her wish was to
interview the ladies and expose their plight in an article that would land her
a job…instead of making cheese on the family dairy farm. But her conservative
Norwegian family is scandalized. The solution: send Kelci to her cousin
Ritter’s Astoria, Oregon hotel until the gossip dies down. Being in a new
location doesn’t quash her curiosity.
Even though Hauk Stefanssen spends

town from his chatty younger sisters. The woman’s spoken with Peder at the fire
safety council and Eryk at the family’s cannery. Feeling ignored, he seeks her
out and is bowled over by her assertive personality. After reading her
articles, he sees through the brashness to the compassionate woman inside and
vows to become better acquainted. But what does an easy-going fisherman have to
offer this dynamo?

opposite personalities, community events, and the swoon-worthy trope of he
falls first.

A
Compromised Christmas
By
Marisa Masterson
How had
she lost her way?
Gracie Williams only wants a private
moment away from the other stagecoach passengers. Somehow, she wanders into the
wilderness, and the forest refuses to allow her to leave—or so it seems to her
as branches close in as she tries to push through them. She is completely lost
until she hears a noise.
Ezra Rafferty—Rafe to the few
friends he allowed into his life—hums as he returns to his cabin. The hunt was
successful, and he anticipates the warm fireplace in his cabin as heavy snow
begins to fall. Yes, he savors the quiet life. Being alone suited him fine,
especially after the incident.
But he does not remain alone. A
wild-eyed woman bursts onto his trail. She clutches his coat and begs for help.
What’s a man to do? He takes her to his home for shelter during the storm.
He does not plan to keep her. Plans
have a way of changing…
Rafe has
set in motion the events that will unwind a scheme and bring to light secrets
that reverberate all the way to the East. All because a woman wanders off the
trail.

Substitute Bride
By
Kimberly Grist
When disappointed hopes
collide – Will a resilient mail-order bride muster enough resolve to pursue her
dreams of love and soften a reclusive mountain man's heart?
Abandoned as a child and raised in a children’s
home, Ruby knows that romantic dreams are mere illusions. After aging out of
the orphanage , she follows her pastor's advice and applies to a matchmaking
agency. While practical in her approach, deep in her heart lies a flicker of
hope, a dream of her own happily ever after, where she longs for a place to
belong and a husband to cherish. As circumstances would have it, her future
groom is also short on time. Praying that is a good sign, she accepts a
proposal of marriage and heads west to a land where the streams are said to
flow with milk and the heavens rain down a supply of honey.
Disheartened by love and rejected by
his mail-order bride, Jonas Vann, a former army scout, is determined to protect
his heart and keep the world at bay. Fortunately for him, knowing he needs help
caring for his family, his friends and neighbors intercede on his behalf. As
winter approaches, they take matters into their own hands, accepting a
substitute mail-order bride on his behalf.
The unyielding force of destiny is
as strong as the power of attraction. Will an arranged marriage, a ready-made
family, and the spirit of Christmas be the catalyst to fulfill all their
dreams, or will their newfound love collapse under the weight of the challenges
ahead?
