The Bride Wore Spurs
Sharon Ihle · The Inconvenient Brides #1
A mail-order bride arrives in Wyoming — but the man she's meant to marry never ordered her.
Description
A RECKLESS LASS, A RELUCTANT LOVERKathleen Lacey O'Carroll knew she faced an uncertain future when she arrived in Wyoming as a mail-order bride – especially when she learned that the man she was to marry hadn't actually ordered her. How could John Winterhawke, a fiercely independent and unsettlingly handsome half-Indian, possibly make room in his heart and in his life for her?As far as Hawke was concerned, the last thing he needed was a high-spirited, overeager Irish wife who knew nothing about surviving on the harsh prairie. But once the determined Lacey sensed the rough kindness and simmering hunger under Hawke's forbidding demeanor, she set out to match his dark passion with her own – and claim his wild heart on her terms.
