Elinore: Wild Rose Ridge Historical

A frontier town in need of taming. A threadbare socialite with everything to prove. And a lonely bachelor who’s never been kissed. When Elinore Cantrell’s reckless father gambles away their fortune, society slams its doors, and danger opens a darker one. Her only escape from paying back her father’s debt to a “gentleman’s club” is the Wild West, as a mail-order bride . If a husband in Wild Rose Ridge can restore her good name, she’ll face the unknown in Washington Territory and stake her last hope on a stranger. Robert Cameron is a wealthy farmer with plenty of land and no one to share it with. His mother’s scandalous past has ensured that. Thirty-five years ago, she arrived tattered and bruised, with a baby and a bag of gold. The whispers never stopped, and the handful of women on the Ridge shun her still. Robert’s one chance for happiness rests in a bride who knows nothing of his family’s shadowed reputation. But when Elinore steps off the boat expecting wealth and status, she finds a modest man and a truth she’s not sure she can accept. She’s traded one scandal for another. Sometimes, what begins in desperation can grow into a love stronger than any dare to dream. On the rugged frontier, hearts aren’t easily tamed… but miracles bloom where the soil is hardest.
