The Independent Bride

In 1868, Colorado Territory was about as rough-and-ready as the West could get, a place and time almost as dangerous as the men who left civilization behind, driven by a desire for land, gold . . . a new life. Fort Lookout was a rugged outpost where soldiers, cattlemen, and Indians lived on the edge of open warfare, the last place any woman in her right mind would choose to settle
Abby Pierce was everything a man should avoid – with a figure made for temptation, a face of beauty, and an expression of stubborn determination. Colonel Bryce McGregor knew there was no room for such a woman at his fort or in his heart. But no matter how many obstacles he put in her path, Abby was determined to make a go of her father’s store. And as she received proposal after proposal from his troops, Bryce realized the only man he could allow to marry her was himself.

The Reluctant Bride

Boulder Gap was a false-fronted, one-street town where the only way a fellow could find a decent woman was to send away for her.
When Tanzy Gallant first caught sight of the man she’d come west to marry, he was galloping after a gang of bandits, peppering their worthless hides with buckshot. Russ Tibbolt was a far cry from the safe, respectable husband she’d expected when she agreed to become a mail-order bride. For one thing, he’d killed a man ten years before. For another, he was much too compelling for any woman’s peace of mind. With his cobalt-blue eyes looking down into hers and his powerful body doing its magic, how could she hope to win the battle of wills between them or keep her heart intact? For beneath the onslaught of Russ’s kisses, she was very far from being a reluctant bride.

Reviews for - The Reluctant Bride

"A fabulous western romance"
“Leigh Greenwood always provides one of the year's best western romances, but his latest tale may be the best in an illustrious career. The lead couple is a likable pairing that readers hope come together as their interplay is terrific fun to follow. However, what makes the tale is the realistic support cast as the audience gets a different taste on relationships that would send someone less courageous than Tanzy is back to St. Louis.
-- Harriet Klausner

A light and bright romance shaded just enough by the anti-romantic descriptions of family, upbringing, and the flawed pasts of both hero and heroine.
-- Gerry Benninger, Romantic Times

The idea of a mail-order bride is always a fascinating one, but this story has a bit of a twist since the bride is unwilling. THE RELUCTANT BRIDE is an entertaining tale, and readers who like romantic stories set in the old west are sure to enjoy it.
-- Marilyn Heyman, Romance Reviews Today
