About this listen
When Matthew Canton's mail-order bride is kidnapped from her wagon train, he doesn't hesitate to rescue her. But he didn't expect to have to bargain for her--and he certainly didn't expect her to be someone entirely different.
Sophia Zane needed a quiet, quick way out of Kansas City with the money she inherited. Opting to join a wagon train headed west, she doesn't correct the wagon master when he assumes she's someone else. It's safer to leave under a different name, and her way is now already paid.
When outlaws kidnap Sophia from the wagon train, she invents a wealthy groom to persuade them to keep her alive. She never thought her fabricated fiancé would find her--much less believe she's actually the woman whose name she's taken on.
Traveling across the desert together, it doesn't take Matthew long to realize the woman beside him isn't the one he sent for, yet he finds himself attracted to her bravery, generosity, and quick-thinking nature. When they return to town and Sophia's reputation is in question, Matthew proposes a quick marriage. But can Sophia believe Matthew has truly forgiven her for her deception? Will their blossoming love survive the danger that's followed them to Crest Stone?
A Bartered Bride is a standalone sweet and clean historical western romance novel that can be read on its own, or enjoyed as part of Cat's Crest Stone Mail-Order Brides series.

Meet Randi Burnett—she’s brilliant, she’s beautiful, and she works for the bride. Missing groom? Intoxicated in-laws? Crying ring-bearer? You name it, she wrangles it. Too bad her personal life isn’t thriving like her side gig as a bridesmaid for hire. Recently dumped, Randi throws herself into her biggest challenge yet when she’s hired as a maid of honor and pretend best friend for an ice queen bride. There’s just one problem—the best man is infuriating, overprotective, and anti-marriage.

Story4 out of 5 stars 89
The tall, dark stranger needed Wren Matthew's help - and the shy high school teacher couldn't turn away a man in distress. She didn't know why Keegan Winslow was out in the middle of an ice storm, but the spirit of the holidays compelled her to open her home to him. And although she'd sworn off men, she couldn't deny the sparks that crackled between them. Keegan was a cop on a mission when sweet, lovely Wren rescued him from the storm. But the haven - and the love - he found in her arms was a happiness he knew couldn't last. He couldn't offer her the one thing she wanted: his heart.

Unique Mail Order Bride Story
I enjoyed the false identity mail order bride storyline of the book. The relationship between Sophia and Matt is quite good. But the AI voice takes away from the characters and the book. But it is better that other AI voices.

Short and sweet
Sweet story that would have only been better if read by a human. I try to accept virtual voice but it has a long way to go to make it have the intonations of a human.

It is good book but...
Using AI for voices you'd think there could be more variety in voices as well as emotion. This made the reading monotonous. I'd rather have a human read it.
