Inheritance's Price
Eighteen-year-old Claire is given one year to find a husband and settle down or she will be shipped off to Chicago. With no prospects in sight and no desire to trade the cattle trails and her split skirts for Chicago’s tight corsets, Claire finds herself in a panic to save her freedom on the range of Wyoming.
After a tragic accident, Claire realizes Ma's ultimatum is not about grandchildren, but for Claire's own protection and her and her younger sister's inheritance. An idol from her childhood is after her inheritance and destroying the ranch her family has built.
Claire is left alone to run the ranch, save the two hired hands and a man she despises. A neighbor whose last name makes her Pa’s lip curl. Meyer. Claire has been raised on her Pa’s hatred for the men on the neighboring ranch, but she had her own reasons for disliking the eldest of the Meyer clan, Jeffrey. But Jeffrey may be the only one who can help her keep the ranch and protect her from the one that wants to steal it. Can she trust him or is he only after the land and her inheritance, too?

Good story, but
It would have been so much more enjoyable with better editing - it ruins the flow of the story when it’s full of spelling and grammatical errors.

Hard to follow along...
I didn't care for this story. Father beat his daughter a lot.... A lot of people in this story, it gets confusing.
