    One-by-one, she’s watched her fellow brides leave for their new lives and has heard tales of their happiness, and she wants that for herself—but not just any man. She will only take a husband who offers wealth and status. Michael Morgan struck it rich in mining, or at least richer than anyone else in the tiny town of Morgan’s Crossing, Montana. He’s built himself the nicest house in town, which isn’t saying much when there are only ten homes in the whole place. He’s elected himself mayor of the population of 61 inhabitants and keeps his kingdom under tight control. When he hears stories of the mail-order brides arriving in nearby Sweetwater Springs, he decided to send for a wife, even if he has to exaggerate a mite to attract one. A wealthy mine owner who’s the mayor of a town named after him and has a mansion sounds perfect to Prudence, even if the place is too close to the other mail-order brides whom she dislikes. But when Michael and his circumstances are not what Prudence dreamed, tempers flare and the fighting begins. Can Michael tame the shrew, or are they destined to have a miserable marriage? 1886 Mail-Order Brides of the West Series in order: Mail-Order Brides of the West: Trudy Mail-Order Brides of the West: Evie Mail-Order Brides of the West: Heather Mail-Order Brides of the West: Lina Mail-Order Brides of the West: Darcy Mail-Order Brides of the West: Kathryn Mail-Order Brides of the West: Prudence Mail-Order Brides of the West: Bertha (Spring 2016) Montana Sky Series in Chronological Order: 1882 Beneath Montana Skies 1886 Mail-Order Brides of the West: Trudy Mail-Order Brides of the West: Lina Mail-Order Brides of the West: Darcy Mail-Order Brides of the West: Prudence 1890s Wild Montana Sky Starry Montana Sky Stormy Montana Sky Montana Sky Christmas A Valentine's Choice Painted Montana Sky Glorious Montana Sky Sweetwater Springs Christmas Sweetwater Springs Scrooge Healing Montana Sky (October 2015) Mystic Montana Sky (July 2016)

So when the reputable town judge suggests a match between Wilde and his newly qualified magistrate grandson, Rostin Taylor, they accept. Fully expecting a fight, they're dumbfounded when Wildemina readily agrees. Truth be told, the news that Rostin is heading out West is all the information she needs—anything to get out of Independence. Her single condition is that the wedding be postponed until she's ready; she will not give herself to any man until she wants to. If that means that she and Rostin will be setting out on the trail unmarried, so be it; their reputations be damned. Rostin Taylor knows what kind of man his grandfather really is; snide, corrupt and just plain mean. He's also fully aware that the old judge decided to play matchmaker purely in order to make his grandson's life difficult by forcing him to wed 'that Weston girl'. What he doesn't expect, however, is how quickly and easily he falls for her. Under Rostin's care, guidance, and firm hand, Wilde blossoms. Even though the handsome young magistrate won't allow her to drink and gamble with the boys, he appreciates and supports the fact that she can throw knives, hunt and shoot with the best of them—and he evokes feelings in her she'd never before dared to imagine. There's also something inordinately comforting about the way he calls her his 'Mina-girl'... and the way he fulfils a role she's always craved but never had; that of a real, loving Daddy. Rostin comforts her during thunderstorms and gives her pleasure the likes of which she's never experienced before. He also doesn't hesitate to put her over his knee for a sound paddling when she disobeys him. Slowly, Wilde comes to adore the man she was assigned to marry. It's hard, but she eventually finds the strength to trust him... to be vulnerable for the first time in her life. So when Rostin disappears after a fight, she is devastated. Were his promises too good to be true? Or have the dangers of the Oregon Trail in 1850 claimed yet another victim?
