Havenstone: Mail Order Brides Series by Violet Rae, Fern Fraser

He doesn’t think he deserves love. She’s about to prove him wrong. Angus. When my mother died, she left behind more than memories—she left a clause that forced my brothers and me to marry or lose the family ranch. I don’t have time for romance, and I sure as hell don’t believe in soulmates. So I hire a bride—quiet, capable, emotionally off-limits. At least, that’s what I think. Because I never expected Luna. She’s fierce in ways I don’t know how to handle. Quiet, but not weak... moreHe doesn’t think he deserves love. She’s about to prove him wrong. Angus. When my mother died, she left behind more than memories—she left a clause that forced my brothers and me to marry or lose the family ranch. I don’t have time for romance, and I sure as hell don’t believe in soulmates. So I hire a bride—quiet, capable, emotionally off-limits. At least, that’s what I think. Because I never expected Luna. She’s fierce in ways I don’t know how to handle. Quiet, but not weak. Guarded, but impossible to ignore. She stirs up instincts I thought I’d buried for good. The more I try to keep her at arm’s length, the more she proves she belongs. And the longer she stays, the clearer it becomes—she’s not just here to save the ranch. She might be here to save me. Luna. I didn’t come to Clover Canyon looking for love. I came because I needed a place to land. A roof that wouldn’t disappear. A man who wouldn’t want more than I could give. But Angus Sutton is more than a gruff cowboy with a scarred face and a storm behind his eyes. He’s loyal. Fierce. And every time he looks at me, I see something deeper. Something darker. Something I’m not sure I should want—but do. I came here to build a new life. But if I’m not careful, I won’t just fall—I’ll fall for the one man who doesn’t think he deserves to be loved.
