The Toy Maker's Rescue: The Rich Man Takes a Bride, #5

Reclusive and grumpy Artemis Shay works hard in his workshop, hidden in the side of a mountain, inventing new toys and other functioning contraptions. His family from the far north has kept the location of the workshop secret for generations.

Unfortunately for him, two busy-bodies in town compete for his affections trying to lasso themselves a rich husband. Agnes bakes cookies to win over Artie and Louise bakes him fruit pies. Artie would just as soon be left alone, until…

Elinore Romano, the beautiful and smart new school teacher, arrives in town and captures his attention.

And, unbeknownst to anyone, a young stow-away also arrived on the same train as Elinore. He manages to crash into Artie’s world threatening to ruin everything.

Can Elinore help him? Can Artie trust Elinore with his secrets?

But, then, Elinore has secrets of her own.

Then Artie begins to suspect someone has been in his secret workshop. Has his trust has been betrayed?

Can Artie and Elinore keep their secrets? If their secrets are exposed, can love survive?
