Return to the rousing 1860's, where Chicago's Happily Ever After Co. is doing a brisk business in mail-order brides, and three spirited young women will risk it all on a once-in-a-lifetime chance at love... HARD TO RESIST Though her father had made a huge success of the Happily Ever After Co., Noelle Braddock wasn't about to let him play matchmaker for her. So when he opened their home to a brash young war hero —- and a buckskin-clad mountain man no less —- Noelle was determined to do everything she could to show her disdain for Lieutenant Zachary Dane. But ignoring the ruggedly handsome sharpshooter wasn't as easy as she imagined, especially when his shameless seduction tested every ounce of her willpower. And yet when an accident of fate turned Noelle's world upside down, she began to see what Zack had known all along...that their love was truly meant to be.
