About this listen
The things a woman in love will do to keep her man...
Belinda Fairfax is tired of waiting for Colt Branson to remember she's still in love with him. She put their wedding plans on hold and supported his decision to travel west in search of his missing sister. She championed his plan to open a mail-order bride agency — one with a Gallant Rescuers Clause to keep other brides safe from the kind of trouble his sister ran into.
But she’s waited so long for him to return home to marry her that she's afraid another woman may have captured his heart along the way. Without the funds to travel west and find out for herself if he's still single, she sees no other choice but to sign one of his blasted mail-order bride contracts and send herself to Arizona as a prospective bride. That ought to get his attention!
Heartwarming historical romance with a dash of humor, a twist of intrigue, and a happily-ever-after! Each title in this series can be read as a standalone.

She neither expects her troubles to follow her west, nor a whole ...

He submits an application...
