Bride for the Innkeeper

Mail-Order Brides of Christmas Mountain Book 1

He wants a mail-order bride. What he gets is a woman on the run with a baby.

Edward Remington is determined to breathe life back into the rundown inn his grandfather left him, proving to his wealthy family that he can succeed as a businessman without their help. What he’s not ready for? Rowdy neighbors and greedy land-grabbers in a frontier town where no women live. Desperate for a capable front-desk hostess, he sends for a mail-order bride with clear instructions: She needs to be a refined and classy woman, capable of helping him run the inn.

Lacey Cleveland arrives in town, dirt-poor and breathtaking with a toddler in her arms. She’s no polished lady, but she’s brave, resourceful, and determined to make a better life for herself and the nephew she’s raising.

To be fair, Edward isn’t the prince charming she dreamed about either. He’s ambitious, demanding, and much too handsome for her peace of mind. Tempers heat and sparks fly as they struggle to run a business together.

Fall head over boots for a cowboy—sweet and swoony western romance with a pinch of cozy suspense!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Bride for the Innkeeper is a clean historical romance that exceeded my expectations. I love anything written by this author but this one is especially sweet. Edward is something of an enigma to those around him. He comes from a wealthy background but is humble in his self assessment. Great book!"

"What an adventure! Edward Remington was a runaway groom. Yep, his father had tried to force him into a marriage benefiting the family and he had wanted none of it. Luckily, his grandfather had left him some land and an Inn and he couldn't wait to make a go of it on his own. Was he in for a surprise! An amazing cast of characters make up Christmas Mountain and I cannot wait until the next in this series! As always Jovie's imagination is amazing, filling her stories with humor and understanding that with faith and perseverance, anything is possible!"
