Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A marriage of convenience, a meddling family, and a love neither saw coming. Sadie Grimm journeyed west with nothing but a suitcase, a handful of letters, and the promise of a practical partnership. Her intended husband, Samuel Cooper, had written of his injury and his need for help running his horse stable. She agreed to his straightforward arrangement: she'd handle the business, he'd keep to the kitchen, and their marriage would be one of convenience, not love.But the man wasn't the weary, one-legged recluse she expected. Instead, Samuel Cooper stood tall, charming, and very much whole. Worse, the tale of his injury was nothing more than a lie-spun by his meddling sister Bea to lure Sadie west.Blindsided by the deception, Sadie is torn. Returning home isn't an option, but staying feels like a betrayal of the future she imagined. Samuel has his own stake in this arrangement. If this union fails, it will jeopardize everything he's worked towards.Now, Sadie and Samuel must navigate meddling relatives, simmering secrets, and the fragile trust between them. As tensions flare and unexpected feelings take root in this heartwarming tale, the line between duty and desire begins to blur.As tensions rise and unexpected feelings take rootCan two people brought together by a lie build a marriage that's real and discover that God's plans often lead to the most surprising places? Or will the truth-and the weight of expectations-destroy their chance at happiness?Love wasn't part of the deal for this mail-order bride. But in the Wild West, nothing ever goes as planned.
