Synopsis

A DESPERATE DECEPTION THE PROMISE OF FOREVER When Karl Norwood' s mail-order bride meets an untimely demise on the way to the Montana Territory, Hetty Wentworth steps in to take her place. Hetty has no idea how she' s going to pretend to be all the things she isn' t-- including the mother of two kids. She only knows her deception is necessary if she' s going to save two orphans from the awful fate she suffered as a child. Karl smells a rat when a much younger woman than he was expecting arrives with two children who look nothing like her. But his mail-order bride is so beautiful, he doesn' t object-- until he realizes that his charming new wife has been lying . . . about everything. Can a woman forced to keep secrets and a man hindered by distrust ever hope to find happily ever after in each other' s arms?

Goodreads review by Mara on November 20, 2013

Montana Bride has a difficult beginning (up to Chapter 7 I was sure it was a DNF), a slightly better mid-section and lots of whys. There are quite a few bride-order romance novels around.

She hasn't learned her lesson yet, either, so expect some trouble, some lies, some flirtation, a nose-punch or two, and mayb......more
