About this listen
When his young wife dies unexpectedly, Jed McBride has a tough time looking after his young daughter Josie. He decides to send for a mail order bride, hoping to find someone to help take care of his little girl.
Across the country, Estelle Morrow is desperate to get away from the Slate Gang and their ruthless leader Amos. As a young girl, she joined her brother as a member of the gang, but now, she wants nothing more than to escape the life of crime.
After fleeing the gang, Estelle ends up at Jed McBride’s ranch due to the most fortuitous of circumstances. Jed believes she is the bride he sent for. Estelle finds herself fitting into life at the ranch, bonding with Josie and unexpectedly falling in love with the handsome Jed. But her past haunts her, and she soon faces threats on her life and on the lives of those she loves.

Ex-Confederate soldier Parker Cole doesn’t understand his own fierce determination to protect the beautiful captive from his fellow bandits.

Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears.

And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.
