The Doctor's Mail-Order Bride
|
Published previously as A Heart's Forgiveness by Lena Nelson Dooley. Accepting an ad for a mail-order bride was supposed to solve her problems. It's 1890, and Golden, New Mexico, is a booming mining town where men far outnumber women. So when Jeremiah Dennison's good friend and mentor finds himself in need of a nurse, Philip places an ad for a mail-order bride—despite Jeremiah’s protests. Hoping to escape a perilous situation back East, Madeleine Mercer answers the ad and arrives in town under a cloud of suspicion. What she finds in Golden is nothing like what she expected, especially not Philip, her expected husband-to-be. But just as she begins to win over Philip—and Jeremiah himself—the secrets she left behind threaten to follow her to Golden…and tarnish her character beyond redemption. |
