A spinster, a bootlegger...an unexpected chance at love. Leaving the safety of her old life, Prudence Walker rides the Bride Train west to the end of the line—her last chance at matrimony. She's too plain to inspire desire. Nor does she expect to find love. She does have her standards, however. Arch Childers longs to put down roots, only he's too busy managing his family's illegal whiskey business to pursue his dreams. Deciding he needs help, his troublemaking brothers kidnap a spinster lady and present her to him, bound and gagged, as his bride. To protect her reputation—and keep his brothers out of jail–he does the only honorable thing and offers marriage. Prudence isn't immune to the charming scoundrel, but a bootlegger is the last man on earth she would marry. That is, until Arch sacrifices his freedom to save her. Tempting Prudence is Book 3 in an exciting new mail-order bride series—with a twist. If you like stories featuring strong heroines and atypical Western heroes set in the rough but real American West, don’t miss this new historical romance series by award-winning author E.E. Burke.
