Today is release day for
Mail Order Roslyn
Book 9 in the series,
Widows, Brides & Secret Babies
Roslyn Welsh
is sent by stagecoach to Junction City to marry a man with whom her aunt and
guardian, without Roslyn’s knowledge, had been corresponding. His requirements
for a wife were that she must be twenty-one years of age with a family Bible
for proof, and she must have no children. Only, Roslyn is not quite twenty-one,
she has a baby, and her aunt has no intention of sending the family Bible with
her. The marriage prospect turns into a disaster. Stuck in a strange town with
no money, she is told there is no work for a decent woman with a baby. To allow
herself time to figure what to do with her future, Roslyn accepts an offer to
ride the stagecoach to the Ellsworth B.O.D. Stagecoach station to help the
stationmaster’s wife.
Elam Stewart
survived the American Civil War, but his left leg from above the knee down did
not. With no home to return to and realizing there are very few people willing
to hire a man with only one good leg, he’s convinced he has no future. While
working as a day laborer in the local livery, he becomes intrigued by a visitor
named Ross who is anxious to spend time with the horses, especially once Elam
discovers Ross’s secret. Then he learns where Ross intends to seek work. Even
though he does not have a future, he does have a Spencer repeating rifle. He
can have a purpose.
Roslyn and
Elam ride the same stagecoach to the Ellsworth Station on the Kansas frontier. Between
resentments among the stock tenders, difficulties with animals that pass
through the station, and the threat of attacks by the Cheyenne Native Americans,
is there a future for Roslyn and Elam at the station? Or will their future take
them on another stagecoach ride away from Ellsworth?
