About this book
When Fiona accepts a mail-order bride position to escape prison, she sees it as the perfect opportunity to reclaim her young son from the outlaw who stole him—never expecting to develop real feelings for the honorable rancher she's promised to marry. Ross, still grieving his murdered wife, agrees to the unconventional bride program specifically to get close to Fiona, convinced she's connected to the man who destroyed his family. As these two damaged hearts navigate a marriage built on secrets and crossed purposes, they'll discover that sometimes the person you're determined to deceive becomes the one you can't bear to lose. This heartfelt western romance explores whether two people with everything working against them can find genuine love in the wreckage of their pasts.

“Create a playlist called A Bride for Ross. Dusty outlaw ballads meet second-chance romance: gritty Americana, folk storytelling, and smoldering country. Think whiskey-soaked vulnerability, redemption in minor keys, and slow-burn chemistry. Artists like Sturgill Simpson, Colter Wall, and Tyler Childers. Atmospheric, intimate, with edges of danger.”
