1889, Mesquite, Texas The nineteenth century is coming to a close and changes have arrived in Mesquite, Texas that seem to threaten a familiar way of life. For the Turner and Kennesaw families, holding fast to the traditions that matter while embracing the freedom of the West is the birthright of being a Texan. But . . . to eighteen-year-old William Turner, change is something he looks forward to as he seeks a mail-order bride. His parents think he’s too young to marry, so he sets out to prove them wrong by living and working with the ranch hands. Anushka is coming of age and it’s time to think about marriage. Her mother thinks she should marry the nice boy down the street whose father owns the bakery. But he doesn’t hold her interest. She wants someone else. More like one of those Texas ranchers her sisters married. Eager to find love like her sisters did, Anushka heads to Texas. Will Anushka and William blaze a path to love like they had hoped? Or will Anushka’s stern, unyielding mother stand in their way . . . AUTHOR’S NOTE: This 125-page story is book five of the Brides & Twins Series.
