Tenacious Trudy: Sweet Historical Western Romance (Mail Order Brides Rescue Series Book 10) Kindle Edition

4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars 205 ratings

A nurse trying to dodge an arranged marriage, a doctor seeking true love, and his mail-order marriage proposal…

Dr. Rory Jude is tired of coming in second — second in his father’s affections, second-in-line to run the family business, and the second choice of his fiancée who always seems to have her eye on a wealthier prospective groom. Seeking a fresh start, he leaves the city to open a doctor's office out west. He finds himself in a town desperately short of marriageable women, until a chance encounter with a mail-order bride agency owner opens his eyes to another way to find a wife.

Convinced she's destined for greater things, Trudy Crandall skips her debutante season in order to attend the Boston School of Nursing. After she graduates, her family tries to rein in her bluestocking tendencies by pressuring her into an arranged marriage. To sever her financial dependence on them, she begs the Boomtown Mail Order Brides Agency to find her a husband who will support her dream of becoming a nurse. To her surprise, they claim to have the perfect groom in mind to make all her wishes come true!

Heartwarming historical romance with a dash of humor, a twist of intrigue, and a happily-ever-after! Each title in this series can be read as a standalone.
—Jo Grafford, writing as Jovie Grace

    Trudy has decided to go West to find a husband and a nursing career. So Mr Branson sent her to Headstone, Arizona, where his brother will take over getting her the dreams she want. When Rory heard the name of her he applied to be her groom. They had met at a ball a year ago. He picks her up at the depot and takes her to the new bridal agency next door to his Doctor's office. Within minutes, they are overrun with town folks saying there was a roof collapse at the church and they are needed immediately. They save all the men but one lost his leg. Please read and enjoy this love story and the twists and turns it takes.
