Mail Order Bride - Jewels of the West #2
Devoted to Emerald
Her whole life crumbling beneath her…grief, broken promises, unwanted proposals…how does she know that leaving all this behind will be any better? Avery is a man on a mission. He needs a mother for his two daughters and as such applies in the personal section to get the best mail order bride there is. He isn’t looking for love, just someone to call a wife while she makes sure that his two daughters are well taken care of. What he didn’t bargain for was how beautiful she would be and how her emerald eyes could evoke such strong emotions he thought he had given up long ago… Emerald is seeking an avenue of escape from a life of hopelessness brought on by unfortunate events. When she answered the ad sent by Avery, it felt like the right thing to do and when she meets him and his two daughters nothing could prepare her for the feelings he evoked in her and as she fights to gain the trust of the oldest daughter she also fights to gain the heart of a man who swore he would never love again. Will he continue to be wholeheartedly devoted to his deceased wife, or will he open his heart to Emerald… ***BONUS SHORT STORIES INCLUDED***

Tender Story Of Love And Loss
This is a tender love story. The characters seem realistic and well fleshed out. It does seem like an early piece for this author, as it is not as polished as other stories of hers that I have read. There are some editing errors, which can be overlooked. But, the research errors are huge. Montana is not next to Arizona and the western states were never countries – they were territories. Most importantly, distance is measured in miles, not kilometers! Oh, but how these British authors need some American beta-readers to catch some errors. I do enjoy this author’s work and will read more of it.

Sweet story outlines, needs polish
I found this to be a collection of sweet stories about a variety of young women seeking a future as bride's in the American west.
Unfortunately, most of the stories read like outlines or sketches, rather than fully developed narratives. Character development is limited, and many plot points are rushed.
Any of these stories has the potential to become a full length novel, if fleshed out and polished.
They also need serious editing and proofreading.

Light reading
Short stories with the theme of mail order brides. Most are not too long and are certainly good if you don't want to dive into a complex book.
