Seven Brides for Seven Lawmen

A MAN WITH A HAUNTING SECRET

Deputy Samuel Cruz escaped his troubled youth and turned his life around—no more drinking, no more gambling. He’s dedicated his life to upholding the law in Resurrection, Kansas: the town that gave him a chance to start fresh.

The last thing he wants is to remember who he used to be.

A WOMAN WITH A SENSE OF JUSTICE

Mabel Hawthorne is a firm believer in second chances—that’s why she decided to become a mail-order bride. Marrying Samuel saves her from slaving away in a garment factory back East, now that her own parents are gone. She’s proud to be marrying a man who’s so dedicated to upholding the law and keeping others safe.

But if there’s anything that sticks in her craw, it’s injustice—and out on the western frontier, the concept of justice is a little more flexible than Mabel’s used to.

AN ABUSED BOY ON THE RUN

When Samuel’s profligate past catches up with him, Mabel wants nothing more than to help him put things to rights.

But this time, the law’s not on their side. As they fight to save a precocious boy from his abusive uncle, can Mabel keep Samuel on the straight-and-narrow?
