Ruby's Christmas Escape
(2025)(A book in the Mountain Man's Substitute Bride series)
A novel by Kimberly Grist
When disappointed hopes collide—can a resilient mail-order bride, marked by a gaze as striking as her spirit, melt the heart of a mountain man hardened by disappointment?
At twenty, Ruby Shelby’s time at the orphanage has run out. Labeled different and now desperate with nowhere to turn, she takes a leap of faith and becomes a mail-order bride bound for Montana.
Eli Hawkins is a man of few words and many burdens. Born of frontier roots and shaped by hardship, he understands what it means to live between two worlds—judged by some and misunderstood by many. When his well-meaning aunt meddles in his life, he finds himself face-to-face with a substitute mail-order bride whose presence kindles more than his faith
A resilient bride, a world-weary mountain man, and a Christmas season where faith might melt even the coldest of hearts.
Genre: Inspirational
