19-year-old Patience Sutton has never been praised for her cooking – in fact, she burned the pumpkin pie at her family’s last Thanksgiving dinner. As the youngest of 10 children, she’s tired of always being the baby and longs to grow up. When she spies an ad in the paper from Oregon banker Jefferson Cooke seeking a mail-order bride willing to travel out west and who “must love children,” Patience jumps at the chance for a new life. With children of her own to take care of, maybe she’ll finally get some respect! Right?

 A Child's Faith

releasing November 9th

1892, Green Timbers, WA

Elin Kristiansen has her hands full as a single mother following the tragic death of her husband in a shipwreck off the rocky coast of the Pacific Northwest. Thankfully, the U.S. government has recognized the need for a lighthouse at Bluff Point, and Elin couldn’t be more pleased when her father accepts the position of Keeper. However, she just can’t seem to bring herself to accompany him on his weekly rowboat trips to the station to tend the lamp – and what’s more, the mere thought of Finn, her son, setting foot on board sets her insides churning.

Elin knows her father keeps hoping she’ll get over the terror that washes over her every time she considers braving the waters, but she's starting to have doubts. When she gets into an argument with Finn over his adamant wish to learn how to swim, she can’t possibly trust the handsome captain who offers to instruct him and vows to keep him safe – or can she?

Skip's Stubborn Bride

Her groom-to-be didn't want her. The matchmaker failed; all there was left to do was go home.

 

But when Ginger Mabey nor the man she came to wed has the funds to pay for her return journey, it looks like the only way forward is to travel the dusty Nevada trails together. If showing her face in Sacramento again would about near kill her, hearing her parents say "I told you so" would be the final nail in her coffin. Ginger would never admit it out loud, but deep down she agreed she was too stubborn to make a good wife.

 

Cowhand Skip Taylor, on the other hand, is as savvy as they come, but when his friend writes to the matchmaker on his behalf, Skip would have liked to know about it, ideally before the stagecoach dropped the feisty woman off in his one-horse town.
