Kit Morgan

260 books413 followers
Kit Morgan, aka Geralyn Beauchamp, has been writing for fun all of her life. When writing as Geralyn Beauchamp, her books are epic, adventurous, romantic fantasy at its best. When writing as Kit Morgan they are whimsical, fun, inspirational sweet and clean stories that depict a strong sense of family and community. 'His Prairie Princess' is the first of the Prairie Brides books and the first in the series of a long line of stories about Clear Creek, Oregon. One of the wackiest little towns in the old west! Get to know the townsfolk in Clear Creek and come sit a spell!

NOTE: Hi folks, it has come to my attention there is an erotica book floating around out there written under the name Kit Morgan. IT IS NOT MY BOOK! I do not, and never will, write in that genre.

I can't in good conscience give a good rating to a book just because of its relatively clean content. This was not well written and I probably won't be finishing this series. There was a lot of telling, not showing, and no chance for the reader to discover anything about the characters on his/her own. The author tried so hard to be funny, but it was mostly too silly and not funny at all. The h was one of the whiniest MCs I've ever read, with completely ridiculous reasoning for becoming a mail order bride. The H's family had too many people in it to introduce them all in such a short story. The H himself was clueless but sweet. Half a star for relatively clean content and half a star for a lovable H.

Sweet romantic story, set more than 100 years in the past. It was interesting and sometimes quite funny. I will continue with this series, for sure.

I liked this novel, it was an interesting and fast read; however, there was way more sexual content that I am comfortable reading. Now, I am not a prude, I just try to limit myself to what I am exposed to on a daily basis. I try to not read anything I wouldn't read out loud in front of my children.

To place it in perspective, this novel did not go into specific details about what transpires between a man and woman in their bedroom; however, the story line did follow an added note to a letter that had everything to do with that subject.

I have multiple books about mail-order brides, and in each the authors tried to make it sound like something it wasn't, but I can say with certainty that that did not happen in this novel. The author was utterly honest about how small towns work, and the horrors of what one well placed gossip can cause. Overall, without the added things, this novel was good.

Finally, a book overflowing with enough humor to reach my Irish funny bone! The author sets the curiosity hook deep right at the beginning by planting this mysterious question: What on earth did matchmaker Mrs. Pettigrew secretly add to the end of mail order bride Ebba Knudson's letter of introduction? Husband-to-be Daniel Weaver never got far enough to read the whole missive before it was stolen by the nasty town gossip in Nowhere, Washington. Even with the best intentions, neither the prospective husband nor the prospective wife are forthcoming which leads to a crisis of trust. Ebba suffers with severe allergies to the point she can scarcely venture outdoors. Daniel has not divulged he lives on a ranch with a boisterous army of at least two dozen relatives who are reproducing like rabbits. And, why are the townsfolk of Nowhere acting so strangely towards Poor Ebba? Having read at least 300 western romances, I could easily tell this was not author Kit Morgan's first rodeo because it could have been boring working with just 3 venues: Denver, Nowhere and the Weaver ranch, but it was anything but that. What a heart-warmer, full of sight gags, scandalous gossip and sweet family love.

Reviewed at Historically Romantic

I had fun with Dear Mr. Weaver from Kit Morgan. Lighthearted with lots of chuckle out loud moments, a horrid town gossip who reminded me of Mrs. Olsen and her daughter Nellie, the gossip/bully mother/daughter duo from Little House on the Prairie and a boisterous family to completely enjoy.

After the passing of her parents Ebba is alone in the world, she’s tired of working for a nasty and rude woman but has little options if she wants a place to live and food to eat. She takes a chance on a matchmaker, thinking why not at least look into the possibility. Ebba certainly wasn’t prepared in the least for the eccentric Mrs Pettigrew and somehow finds herself answering a prospective groom’s letter… with an additional P.S. added by Mrs. Pettigrew that Ebba was completely unaware of. Just a little “help”… that goes totally wrong.

There are a lot of characters in this story, but to be fair we’ve met many of them in previous stories by Kit Morgan so they aren’t strangers, just a tad overpowering all at once. That added to the fun of this story for me, but other readers have their own opinions as well. Unknown to Daniel, Ebba or Daniel’s family the letter Ebba wrote back to Daniel was snatched up by the town gossip – and she causes some serious trouble for not only Ebba but for the family as well. In addition, Daniel wasn’t totally forthcoming about the size of the family she’d be living with, how far from town they were or other small details. Poor Ebba suffers from sever allergies, and living on a farm that focuses on apple orchards and such is murder on her poor nose. I liked this couple and had fun with their story. There is suspense from the actions of the town gossip which results in danger to Ebba. I loved the way justice was served for the troublemakers. We don’t know what Mrs. Pettigrew added to Ebba’s letter until the very ending of this story… and you’ll shake your head at how “that” got the reaction it did. I had fun, I enjoyed my time here and I’ll be continuing with the series. If you love Western Historical Romance then I’d recommend Dear Mr. Weaver. A story doesn’t have to be “hot off the presses” to still be an enjoyable, worthwhile read.

I read this title through my Kindle Unlimited subscription.

*** DECENT STORY ***
Book one in this series, but the author's other series and characters cross over, fyi. Mail-order bride story; with a poor girl who suffers horribly from allergies and is heading to an apple orchard and farm.
Ebba (Eh-bah) knows so little about him and his family that a lot of misunderstandings rob her of her joy, but Daniel is patient and willing to do whatever it takes to make her comfortable and happy. He seems very sweet.
While there was some sprinkling of faith, one very big missed opportunity (for me) was when Ma tells Ebba that a marriage needs 3 things to be successful - yet none of them were the Lord.
There were some moments of humor that made me chuckle: “I’ll go with you,” the sheriff offered. “A woman ought not to be barging into the saloon by herself. Especially when it’s you – you’re liable to scare the men half to death.” Mary Weaver just laughed. “Oh Harlan, don’t be silly.” “Yeah,” agreed Daniel. “She’s liable to scare ‘em completely to death!”

TEA MOMENT: As predicted, stepping out (well, forced out) onto the front porch with Daniel had sent her into a sneezing fit within minutes. But another dose of chamomile tea, this time with a bit of honey added, helped calm her throat before it got out of hand.

There is a brief attempted rape that should be noted in the event that is problematic for some.
Overall it was good/I liked it, so 3 stars.
All opinions are mine alone offered without expectation or compensation. I own a copy of this book, purchased from Thriftbooks and also downloaded the eBook with Kindle unltd.

What an absolute charm this book is! Told as a recounting, this is the tale of yet another "Nowhere" in the Washington Territory, and it's welcome, or lack thereof, mail order bride. Ebba finds herself alone in the world, having lost both her parents in the past year, and the rest of her family five years ago to the dreaded influenza. Not having many options, she decides to try her luck as a mail order bride, enlisting the help of the highly recommended Mrs. Pettigrew, a well known matchmaker. Her only other option was to remain in the employ of a nasty woman, washing laundry. Little did she know just how much the esteemed Mrs. Pettigrew was going to help, or hinder, her, as she makes her way to Washington Territory to marry a stranger. With many misgivings, she finally arrives in Nowhere, only to find herself wracked with even more questions, and even less answers. But not everyone welcomes her to town with open arms, as one woman in particular seems to have taken it upon herself to make her life miserable. But her anxiety lessens a bit upon realizing that the most handsome man she has ever met is her intended. But life is and will never be easy on the Weaver homestead. Only question is...will she survive?
A wonderful story that continues with the Mail order bride series of Nowhere. Well worth the read.

Oh, what a delight this book was! It is beautifully written and I couldn't wait to discover the outcome of all the shenanigans.
It is written from Mrs Pettigrew's point of view while she tells it to a potential Assistant of her Mail-Order Bride Agency.
This particular story is about Ebba and Daniel and how a meddling gossip dirtied Ebba's name in the town of Nowhere and causes people to look at her in a funny way.
It tells how Ebba and Daniel realised that if they wanted a good marriage, they would have to be open with their communications.
I couldn't help but laugh at some of the antics the many children of this wonderful family got up to, as well as that of Daniel's older brothers. His mother proved to be a warm and helpful person but you soon realise that she ruled the roost.
This was definitely a happily-ever-after tale and I loved every minute of it.

Okay, this was definitely in the "steamy clean" category, which was a bit shocking to me, since I thought it was squeaky clean. Overall, it was a nice story about a mail-order bride having doubts and insecurities coming into a loving family. While I liked the characters, I didn't see much of a love story beyond Daniel's instant acceptance of her and her reciprocating that. The family was fun and interesting, though, I'll give them that. However, having ONE LINE in a letter totally set off a terrible rumor (and let the heroine get in a shocking situation) was not realistic or entertaining; rather, it was frustrating and annoying. Not to mention, they had no qualms about mentioning martial relationships, which again, shocked me a bit. I liked it, yes, but I don't see any reason to keep the book on my Kindle.

Dear Mr. Weaver by Author Kit Morgan is a Wonderful Wholesome Book. The kind of Book that makes a reader say Ahhhh why did this book have to end??? Ebba a girl all alone in the world with no living relatives decides her only option of not being destitute is to become a Mail Order Bride. Daniel Weaver is ready to settle down and marry is totally smitten with his Mail Order Bride the Beautiful Ebba. Just one question both Daniel and Ebba both want to know why are the usually overly friendly town folks of Nowhere Washington giving Ebba such hateful looks? One simply must read this beautiful love story that shows that Good can come from bad circumstances. I look forward to reading more about the boisterous family of Weavers and more in this Mail Order Bride series. Author Kit Morgan is so talented to write such intriguing , interesting, laugh out loud stories.

Poor character :-(

This story has a feeling of humor throughout. It is a great set-up to the series as the matchmaker is telling the story to a new hire. I definitely love the concept ideas, but I just felt so bad for the main character. By no fault of her own - and all fault of the matchmaker - she was faced with so many trials. She has a severe allergy to hay and pollen yet was sent to a farming community. She wrote her own letter, but the matchmaker added a postscript that caused a gossiped to slander her name around town. It was a tad frustrating, but I loved the characters and their bonds of friendship and family ties. I'd definitely look into reading more by this author.

I have read a couple of Kit Morgan's stories. I was pretty much disappointed as soon as Ebba's intended opened his mouth. I felt like he was portrayed as a illiterate goof. I live in GA and am familiar with southern talk, but Daniel reminded me of the big "goof ball mentally challenged kid" with how his letter portrayed him and how he talked. And really.. everyone calls Mom Weaver Ma? From the 1st day they met?? Nope..

I enjoyed the story to some extent, but what Mrs. Petigrew wrote at the bottom of Ebba's reply to Daniel, making you wonder why would any match maker sabatoge her clients. You don't know till the 2nd to last page, but I was highly disappointed.

The characters are somewhat interesting, but I have no interest in reading future books in this series.

This was really good book on how misunderstanding and lack of communication almost ruined a young couples marriage. Mrs. Davis and her busy body self, and Mr. Oliver what a snake I really dislike men like that.
Of course we didn't find out until the end what Mrs. Pettigrew wrote. It's was unfortunate that Daniel was put in that postion of defending his wife's honor. Happy for Mrs. Weaver she got her sheriff. Ebba did enjoy teaching the children after all.
It seems in these stories, we deal with modern day issues as well facing today's women, the same with Charity. Women should not be forced to do something against their will.

Dear Mr. Weaver is a fabulous historical romance by Kit Morgan. Ms. Morgan has delivered a well-written mail-order bride book that is loaded with fun and lovable characters. Ebba becomes a mail-order bride and is matched to Daniel. Daniel farms with his huge family. Ebba arrives with her allergies making her miserable. Ebba and Daniel's story is loaded with humor, drama, action and sneezes. I enjoyed reading Dear Mr. Weaver and look forward to reading more from Kit Morgan in the future. Dear Mr. Morgan is book 1 of the Mail-Order Bride Ink Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger. This book is appropriate for all ages.

Clean but strong romance

I would recommend the book to readers who want a slice of the simple life in the western territories. Ebba, a first-generation Swedish-American, is feisty with a strong moral center. Pragmatic but unwilling to take nonsense either. While Daniel is a bit...young in understanding, it's a good match for the two. When malicious gossip creates a dangerous game, they work together to find a solution. The number of Weavers and extended family felt a bit overwhelming, which worked since the book was from Ebba's point of view. Solid story and easy read.

Dear Mr Weaver


Mrs. Pettigrew is a match maker, finding the right bride for the right groom.
A woman come ps into her office looking for employment. She tells the young woman she keeps in touch with her brides and family’s. She then tells the young woman about Ebba from Sweden who suffers from allergies sneezing and watery eyes. She travels to a place called No Where. She is shocked to learn that Daniel has a very large family.

I truly enjoyed reading this story! Wonderful tale. Best part no adult content.

Ebba sought help to be a mail order bride. Mrs Pettigrew ran the agency that put potential brides with husbands. When responding to Daniel Weaver's letter, Mrs. Pettigrew added a line at the very end. This added fuel to a gossips fire and hurt poor Ebba's reputation. From the start, Daniel wasn't exactly truthful with Ebba. The wedding was planned and took place. The whole town was talking behind Ebba's back. A most violent incident almost took place. A quick read full of suspense.

Actually, I give this book 3.75 stars. I had a difficult time getting involved in this story. It took many chapters before I connected with the characters. The Weaver family is fun, and Ebba, the main protagonist is lovely. There was so much commotion in the story, at one point, even I was overwhelmed, so it made sense the bride was, too. I felt that some of the Italian phrases/vocabulary uses could have been better. It was sweet, but definitely has some adult themes in the latter chapters.

A delightful read! A matchmaker, looking for an assistant relates a story about one of her mail order brides. Ebba comes west to marry Daniel, whose extended family numbers 24 and whose older brothers have all married mail order brides. Will Ebba marry Daniel or will the magnitude of his family & circumstances pull them apart ?

Hmmmm

I love Kit Morgan stories. They don't have graphic sex scenes , they do have chuckles and great characters. This story was as good as ever, however, I was a bit disappointed with how the "hero" was written. I realize she was trying to make him sound " western" but he came off as a complete idiot compared to how the rest of the family spoke. It didn't move for me.

Love those Weavers

I loved getting to read Daniel & Ebba's story. I love the Weaver family. They are a good, down home family who takes care of those they love. My only complaint is that I would have loved to see an epilogue. I look forward to reading more by this awesome author!!!!

Mail-Order Bride Ink

Very sweet old fashion romance story with a little twist. It reminds you that several different folks can read something and each one see's it differently. The Weaver's are very large family and Ma, runs it. I could see how a young mail-order bride might be a little frightened about what she's getting herself into. Sweet read!

Good and as always full of humor!

As always, Kit Morgan made me chuckle throughout the book. She also kept me wondering throughout the book what was written in the letter. I enjoy her writing so much and I’m glad she keeps the characters and previous towns alive with each book. It feels like you visit old friends with each new book and series. Can’t wait for the next one!!!

What fun!

I received this book free from one of the book sites. I do not remember which one! This is my honest review.
I have smiled and laughed more reading Mail-order Bride Ink: Dear Mr. Weaver than I have with any other mail-order bride story.
The author is witty and keeps you guessing right to the end.
Read the blurb for more information and buy this book!

A tale of gossip

Because a simple sentence in a letter was taken out of context, a mail order bride’s life was majorly affected. Only the faith of her husband and his family saved her from a life of misery. The gossiper’s life was also changed through a series of events that led her to have a different perspective.

Awesome Read

Oh, I love her book. I can't wait to read the others she's written. The innocent lead character & when she meets her husband to be. Small sparks fly. But she has her doubts at first. But to have allergies on top of that, WOW. Ok, you'll have to read to find out what happens. Lol
