A Sweet, Mail Order Bride Western Romance
Is Love Worth the Gamble?
Fiona is tired of the London society, where status and looks are the most important traits a man is looking for in a woman. Wanting a chance at a new life, away from the pitying stares and loneliness of her life in England, she answers an ad as a mail order bride in America.
Brooks is a gambling man, who wants revenge against … America.
Brooks is a gambling man, who wants revenge against his father’s killer. His plans are complicated when Fiona lands in his lap after a winning hand.
He doesn’t have time to be looking after a woman, especially one who should have known better than to come to a strange country on her own. But, somehow, she has become his problem.
Will the final wager cost him his heart?

Facial disfiguration, Revenge, & Gamblers are just a few things Fiona faces when she looks for love.
Fiona is ready to find love on her own when she answers an advertisement for a mail-order bride. Traveling from London to a small western town in America, Fiona meets the man that had sent for her. She did not expect to be part of the payment on a gambling debt. It seems that the man that corresponded with her had not been truthful in his description of himself. When she arrived at the saloon, of all places, it was at the end of a hand of cards of which she was the collateral of the losing hand.
On the other hand, Brooks had been the winner and was presented with Fiona as the collateral for the amount owed to him. Knowing that Milton had lied to the woman and was a low-down scum, he could not let her fall into his hands, he agreed to the offer, and the story begins.
Join Fiona and Brooks as they butt heads in their current situation, fighting the attraction and what the future could bring for them…
