Loving Ellen (Creed's Crossing Historical #4)
E. Ayers

A new mail order bride, Ellen has now been widowed.
Twice.
With two young boys from her first marriage to raise, a newly deceased mail-order-husband, no food and no money, she is forced to accept an offer of shelter from the neighboring rancher who found her latest husband’s body. Ellen is no stranger to sacrifice as a means achieve a better future for herself and her children, but there is something different about Nick. He has a drive and an ambition leading him to seek his own fortune, and that speaks to Ellen like a whispered caress. With Nick and two young boys, Ellen discovers a life she never believed possible.
