Ellen Oldsmere, believing she'd killed an overly amorous
suitor, agreed to become a mail order bride for a
complete stranger in the Montana Territory in order to
flee Minneapolis and avoid prosecution. When she arrives
in August Point, her husband is all that she'd imagined,
and then some. He's handsome, virile and sexually
skilled. But there's a problem for this new bride; her
new husband is also the town sheriff. How can she be
married to a man who would surely arrest her if he found
out her secret?
As the most eligible bachelor in town, Ryder Graves is
determined to not fall prey small town mothers eager to
match him with their marriage- hungry daughters. He wants
more than what is available in August Point. His needs
demand a wife meeting certain criteria women in town do
not possess, so he seeks the help of an expert--a madame
with a skill for matchmaking. When Eleanor arrives from
Minnesota, she meets all of his expectations. She's also
headstrong and defiant, requiring a stern spanking or two
to teach her that - as the lawman of August Point - it is
his job to keep her safe. It comes down to a matter of
right from wrong. But his wife is not all she seems. Will
he still want her when he learns the truth, or will his
passion for the law make her face the consequences of her
actions?
In this follow-up to her #1 best-selling "Montana
Maidens" series, author Vanessa Vale offers more of what
readers have come to love with more hot power exchange
and sex on the windswept Western plains.
