The Temporary Sheriff
(2025)(A book in the Mail Order Brides of Texas series)
A Story by Susannah Calloway
Alma Weaver has learned not to expect fairness from life. Orphaned young and abandoned by her only remaining family, she scrapes by as a governess—until rejecting her employer’s advances costs her everything. With no future left in New York, Alma makes a desperate choice: apply to a matrimonial agency and become a Mail Order Bride.
Her journey to Roebuck, Texas to meet her new husband is marked by near tragedy, and her arrival in the little town isn’t much better. Suddenly, Alma finds herself married to a man who seems cold and distant – and unwilling to let his new wife into the secrets of his former life.
As Alma unravels the past to understand the future, she wonders whether leaving New York as a Mail Order Bride is a mistake she will regret to the end of her days…and whether her growing attraction to her mysterious husband means anything other than heartbreak.
