A woman on the run. A rancher in need. A family’s future hanging in the balance. Amy Gordon is desperate to escape a dangerous past in Chicago. After a deal goes wrong, she boards the first train west—only to find herself stranded in Montana Territory after a tragic derailment. Seizing a chance at safety, Amy assumes the identity of a fellow passenger and heads for Angel Creek, determined to keep one step ahead of her vengeful former partner. Rancher Spencer Wood never expected to become guardian to his three young nieces—or to need a wife so badly. When Amy arrives as his mail-order bride, Spencer hopes she’ll be the loving caregiver his family needs. But Amy, unprepared for the challenges of ranch life and motherhood, keeps her heart guarded, planning to leave as soon as spring arrives. As Spencer faces a life-threatening injury and Amy is drawn closer to the family she never expected, she must choose between running from her past or embracing a future filled with love, hope, and the true meaning of home. Perfect for readers who love mail order bride romance, western Christmas romance, runaway heroine romance, Montana frontier romance, found family romance, protective hero romance, and second chance at love stories.
