Broday's Outlaw Mail Order Brides brings the grit and high emotion of the best western novels: outlaws and robber brides, love and betrayal, strong men and passionate women...all fighting for life and freedom in the old Wild West. When three young children show up on outlaw Tait Trinity's doorstep, he knows he can't help them—a wanted man has no business raising kids. And yet he can't bring himself to turn them away. At a loss, he sends for the mail order bride he'd been writing to, hoping the demure dressmaker will be the answer to his prayers. Melanie Dunbar is nothing like the woman Tait was expecting. She's rough and tumble...and hiding an ulterior motive. Dangerous men have taken her sister hostage, and if Melanie wants to see her alive, she'll have to betray her new husband. There's only one problem—the more time she spends with Tait, the more she comes to care for him. Yet as the noose begins to tighten, Melanie will have to make a terrible choice: save her sister...or the man she loves. A sweeping historical western romance for when the West was wild and man's law favored the few...an extraordinary mail order bride finds her way into the heart of an outlaw.
