The Barefoot Bride

FROM POLITE BOSTON TO THE WILDS OF MONTANA, SHE CAME SEEKING
A SAFE HAVEN FOR HER FAMILY -- AND FOUND UNEXPECTED LOVE.

She was a whaling captain's widow, determined to keep her headstrong son from following his father's course. Molly Gallagher had lost her beloved husband to a watery grave; she refused to risk her son. So she quickly agreed to become a Montana country doctor's mail-order bride. She told him she could never love another man. But she didn't tell him she came with heavy baggage -- a young daughter and a rebellious teenage son.

It might have worked if Seth Kendrick hadn't had secrets -- and a child of his own, a willful daughter determined to end the marriage before it even began ... if he wasn't living a double life as a doctor and a rancher determined to keep his neighbors safe from outlaws. In an untamed land of vigilante justice, where two unruly families sturggled to become one, Molly had no choice but to trust a gray-eyed stranger whose stubbornness matched her own ... whose kisses ignited flash-fire desire ... who was, in fact, the one man in a milion who could hope to win Molly Gallagher's fiery, faithful heart -- forever.
