Full Synopsis
A loveless marriage of convenience on the Kansas prairie turns out to be far more than she bargained for . . .

HE'S PART OF THE WEST

Briggs Brigman has been burned once before, and the last thing he needs is a beautiful wife who will spend hours in front of the mirror, primping herself. He knows how hard the prairie can be on a woman, and all he wants is a stalwart bride who won't complain about hauling water from the creek . . .

SHE'S A CITY GIRL WITH NO IDEA WHAT SHE'S IN FOR . . .

All Sarah MacFarland wants is to escape her fearful life in Boston and start fresh with a new identity. Answering an advertisement for a mail order bride seems like the perfect solution, until she meets her soon-to-be husband—a ruggedly handsome, strapping farmer who leaves her breathless on their wedding night. But is it possible that two tormented souls can find happiness, when all they know is betrayal, and when trust is the only way out of a tumultuous past that simply won't stay buried?

Contains mature themes.
