The Miner’s Bride: A Little Creek Novella

Description

Lydia Howell never had time for romance because she practically raised her five younger siblings after her mother died. When her father remarries, she decides her only chance for love might be responding to a mail-order bride advertisement in the Rocky Mountains. But upon arriving, she learns her intended has died, only survived by his handsome and brooding brother.

Oliver Fitzgerald has had more than his share of financial loss and emotional heartbreak, so he’s in no position to take on a wife. But he can’t leave this beautiful stranger alone in the budding town of Little Creek. So to honor his brother, Oliver offers her a marriage of convenience, because he can’t offer more than that.

Lydia should be satisfied with a roof over her head, but she begins to wonder . . . is the romance she never had still out of reach, or can she break down the walls around her husband’s heart?
