About this listen
A kindhearted spinster is more concerned about the needs of others than her own, which captures the attention and interest of the town’s highly-sought-after bachelor minister…
Madge Barra has a finger in every pie — managing her rascal half-brothers and their mail-order brides, feeding the diamond mining crew at Hope’s Landing, and helping run the Ladies Auxiliary. Now she’s being arm-twisted into serving as the church secretary until her handsome new pastor can hire someone to assist him full time.
Abe Sullivan is at his wits’ end preparing sermons, overseeing church renovations, and attending nonstop charity events. When someone suggests that the hardworking Madge would make the perfect temporary secretary, he considers her the answer to his prayers. All too soon, he finds himself dreaming of coaxing her into an even bigger role — as his wife!
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.

Story
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.

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 ...

Though an innkeeper and his mail-order-bride constantly disagree about how to run a business together, attraction sparks the moment they meet in this sweet, opposites-attract historical romance! Edward Remington is on a mission to restore the Texas inn he’s inherited to its former glory — proving to his family that he can survive without their wealth.
