Henrik's Pursuit
(2022)(The third book in the Land Run Mail Order Brides series)
A novel by Kandice E Geddes
He'll race for her dreams and her heart.
Madeline Doyle’s imagination soars as high as the plots in her novels. She’s tired of her destitute life in Boston and seeks adventure in the wild west. Not only that, she can’t abide scraping by a moment longer to keep her and her three younger sisters alive. Marrying a rich man could solve so many of their obstacles. She sets out to claim her dreams and to help her family; if that involves answering a mail-order bride ad, so be it.
Madeline arrives in the Oklahoma territory days before a great land-run race is to take place. But she all too soon discovers that she misinterpreted the letter from the man she set out to marry. A poor man working for the railroad, no matter how handsome, just won’t do.
Henrik Evans is instantly enchanted with the spirited woman who has come to be his bride, but when she finds out he hasn’t a penny to his name, she rejects his offer of marriage. With his pride bruised, he attempts to forget about the beautiful woman, but when circumstances keep throwing them together, he can’t deny his growing affection for her. Out of options, he strikes a bargain with her, instantly capturing her interest. If claiming her dream piece of land is the way to claim her heart, Henrik will race against any obstacle to find it. But when an interloper with his pockets full of gold overhears Henrik's bargain, he too wants in. And to Henrik’s great dismay, Madeline all too quickly agrees.
Will Henrik’s pursuit be enough to win her heart, or will another claim it first?
