Mail-Order Artist: Hopeful Husbands

By Linda Carroll-Bradd

     Raised on the land of the family’s vineyard, Pascal Gaspard never took to farming, unlike his older brothers. Encouraged by his grandmother, he focused on his passion for sketching and painting. Following his graduation from Académe Julian, he visited an aunt and uncle in America, further developing his skill. The past two years, he’s traveled across the country, painting portraits to pay his way and replicating landscapes to feed his soul. Until he is commissioned to paint a portrait of a young woman who is so mercurial, his talent is tested.
     Rhosyn Caddock will soon turn twenty-five, and her aunt demands Rhosyn take a more active part in the ranch’s management. Aunt Gwyneth believes the sheep ranch is Rosyn’s legacy, but Rhosyn views it as her prison. For now, neither brother shows an interest in returning home to take on the ranch’s management. She longs to travel away from the Caddock land and see what the world has to offer, so she submits an ad to a matrimonial newspaper. A man arrives who she believes has responded to her ad. When she sees him setting up painting supplies, she realizes something else is going on. Monsieur Gaspard is actually there to paint her portrait. His accent identifies him as from a foreign country, and his roster of previous clients labels him as a traveler. Rhosyn is smitten, but how can she get him to see her as more than a subject?

Miss Isolde (The Brides of Fiddler's Gap Book 13)

By Kit Morgan

One small town.
One gentle doctor.
One chance to begin again...

     Famed violinist Isolde Weatherford has performed for thousands, but she’s never been more terrified than she is now—alone in a strange town, her carefully arranged future in tatters. She was supposed to meet a prospective groom, one her identical twin sister kindly screened on her behalf. But now that groom is taken, the town knows the truth about the twin swap, and Isolde has no one left to marry.
     Worse, her contract with a controlling manager will trap her for years unless she weds. But who would want a bride too sick to stand through a wedding march?
     Dr. Aston Garrett is a man of science, but there’s nothing clinical about the way he feels when he looks at Isolde Weatherford. She’s brilliant, beautiful… and hiding more pain than she lets on. He knows he can help her heal, but can he convince her she’s worthy of love, just as she is?
    With danger closing in, Isolde must choose: return to the life that nearly broke her, or trust her heart, and the town doctor who’s come to claim it.
     Find out what happens in this sweet historical western romance!

Mail-Order Physician: Hopeful Husbands

By P. Creeden

No one in town believes Judith Avery belongs in a doctor’s coat—let alone running the practice her father left behind. When she learns her mother sent for a mail-order husband without telling her, she’s ready to send the surly doctor packing. Judith wants respect, not romance, and she never expected to share her medical practice—or her heart—with a grumpy mail-order husband she didn’t ask for. But Emmet Reed’s steady presence and hidden tenderness may be just what she needs to win over the town… and discover love where she never dared hope for.

Mail-Order Barber: Hopeful Husbands

By Zina Abbott

     Rowena Healy’s happiness over being reunited with her husband in the gold mining town of Columbia, California, is short-lived after he is caught in the crossfire of a Saturday night shoot-out and killed. She soon receives offers—many not honorable, none appealing—from the women-starved men in town. She must find a way to support herself and her nine-year-old son, Tobias. The only items of value she now owns are her late husband’s barber shop and its contents. As part of her plan to save the barber business for her son to someday inherit, she advertises for a husband of convenience. The catch? He must have experience as a barber and be willing to teach her son the trade.
     Disillusioned now that most of the streams have been stripped of their easily panned placer gold, Baird Tucker knows he must either hire on as a wage-earning miner or find another occupation. Back east, he had worked as a barber. However, he sold the tools of his trade to finance his journey to California’s gold fields. A newspaper advertisement offers a position for a trained barber—including a shop, supplies, and equipment—in exchange for a marriage of convenience. He is not interested in marriage—he can barely support himself. Recognizing it might be a fool’s errand, the temptation to earn his gold by cutting hair and styling facial hair again is too strong to resist. What does he have to lose by looking into the matter?

Floree Sequoia Bride : National Park Brides Book 2

By  Linda Carroll-Bradd

 Due to the impact of commercial interests on the scenic land that became known as Yosemite, the 38th United States Congress passed legislation creating the Yosemite Grant, which President Abraham Lincoln signed into law on June 30, 1864. It was the first time land was set aside by the U.S. government specifically for preservation and public use. Although initially Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove were ceded to California as a state park, this action set a precedent for the 1872 creation of Yellowstone National Park, the nation’s first national park. Over the years, as more lands were set aside as national parks, these natural wonders captured the imaginations of those who visited and enjoyed their beauty. Join several of your favorite authors as we share romances and adventure set in several of North America’s early national parks.

     Artist Floree Percival goes to stay with the Sampsons, old family friends, in Sequoia National Park. Captain Hank Sampson serves as park manager and agrees to chaperon her. A student in the natural science department of University of Southern California, she’s also the illustrator for her father’s book on the birds of California. But her heart’s desire is to write and illustrate children’s stories.
