Finding Mercy this Christmas: Christmas Wishes out West Book 3, Mail order Brides
Lillian Ruth
In the wake of a tragic accident, young widow Carol Taylor faces a desolate Pennsylvania winter with nothing but debt, grief, and fading memories. Her husband gone, the farm failing, and Christmas drawing near, Carol makes a desperate to answer a stranger’s call for a bride out West. No promises. No romance. Just shelter and work.
Buster Charles, a rancher in Wyoming Territory, has lived two years in the shadow of his own loss. His ranch is crumbling, and with the threat of a brutal winter, he needs help—not love. When Carol arrives, their agreement is she’ll keep the house and he’ll keep his distance.
But as the days grow shorter and Carol fills the house with the scent of cinnamon bread and evergreen garlands, something stirs in both their hearts. In the warmth of a shared hearth, under the glow of candlelight and pine, two weary souls may just unwrap the greatest gift of all.
In the frost-covered eaves of a second chance, a spark of hope can still shine bright.
