‘Put the shotgun down. I’m the groom you sent for.’
‘I sent for a husband to help me fight off bandits. What were you thinking, bringing an infant into this warzone?’


She ordered a husband to save her ranch. She didn't expect him to bring a baby—or a past that could ruin them both.

Maeve knows exactly what she needs to survive the Wyoming frontier: a strong pair of hands and a business partner who won't ask questions.
A mail-order groom is the perfect solution. But when Jed finally arrives at her cabin in the middle of a midnight storm, he isn't just carrying his bags. He’s holding a freezing, abandoned infant in his arms.

Jed was supposed to be a simple arrangement,
but there’s nothing simple about the shadows in his past. Instead, he’s a mystery wrapped in frontier grit, bringing a mountain of trouble to her doorstep after being scammed by his old partner and closest friend.

Tied together by a practical marriage and a shared need to protect little Lily, their neat business arrangement instantly devolves into chaotic domestic warfare. Can they turn their convenient contract into something real before the ghosts of Jed’s past burn it all to the ground?
