The Anonymous Bride - Book One in the Texas Boardinghouse Brides seriesBy Vickie McDonoughDescription:Three mail-orders brides arrive in Lookout, Texas, each expecting to marry the local marshal. But—he didn't order a bride. When a contest ensues to discover which bride will make him the best wife, there is a surprise fourth entry--an anonymous one. Mayhem occurs as the whole town tries to figure out who the anonymous bride is, and the mayor pressures the marshal to pick a bride or lose his job. Will Marshal Davis tuck tail and run for the hills? Or will he lose his heart and his bachelorhood? Book Takeaway:The is a story about forgiveness. It's about letting go of past hurts--big and small--and forgiving and moving on. Why the author wrote this book:I wondered how a man would handle receiving a mail-order bride that he didn't order. I thought it was a fun and different premise and decided to write the story. |

"This fun story is a 19th century version of The Bachelor, only handsome town marshal, Luke Davis, has no idea he's the one about to play."
