I hope you are fortunate enough to have friends who make you laugh. They are a wonderful gift. One friend who makes me laugh is Jacquie Rogers. In my opinion, you can’t beat her Hearts of Owyhee series. In fact, each of us is an award winning and bestselling author.
Several years ago, we decided to write
related books and combine them in one volume. This duet was titled Mail Order
Tangle. We laughed so much, you may have heard us. Then, we decided to do
another, Orphan Train Brides. Both duets hold a special place in my heart.
Let me share them with you:
Mail Order Tangle
https://www.amazon.com/Mail-Order-Tangle-Caroline-Clemmons-ebook/dp/B00MZ6ZRXC
Mail-Order Promise by Caroline Clemmons
Ellie Dickerson and her sister are in
desperate straits when she contracts to become a mail-order bride to a Texas
rancher. After her arduous trip from Virginia, she learns her fiancé has died.
His handsome brother has sworn to take care of her and she’s instantly
attracted to him, but he seems indifferent toward her. What will happen to her
and her sister?
Kage Johanssen, co-owner of a ranch in Idaho with his cousin Matt, is forced to
take over his family’s Central Texas ranch on the death of his older brother.
Kage is in no hurry to get married, and when his brother’s bride shows up,
she’s everything he doesn’t want in a wife—except she’s stunningly beautiful.
Despite his deathbed promise to his brother and his attraction to Ellie, he’s
convinced she doesn’t have the grit to be a rancher’s wife.
When a greedy, sadistic villain attempts to take over the ranch and kill Kage,
can Ellie save her true love? What will it take to prove that she’s the only
woman for Kage?
Mail-Order
Ruckus by Jacquie Rogers
Matt Johanssen returned to the ranch he and his cousin Kage started in Owyhee
County, Idaho Territory, not knowing he took Laura Dickerson's heart with him.
Now that her sister no longer needs her, Laura wants a home of her own and a
family to put in it. No other man would fill the bill as well as Matt, but he’s
not interested. Not wanting to live as a spinster aunt the rest of her life,
Laura signs a contract with a marriage broker, choosing to go to Silver City,
near Matt’s ranch, in hopes that he might come around. But he’s not on the
roster of eligible grooms! When Matt sees Laura among the brides on display on the
balcony of the Idaho Hotel, he feels gutshot. He’s in no position to take a
wife, not with a ranch eating up every spare moment and dollar. But if he
doesn't step forward, the one woman he wants will be wed at the end of the
week—and not to him.
Will Matt walk away from the woman who stole his heart or let go of everything
he's worked so hard to build go in exchange for love?
Orphan Train Brides
https://www.amazon.com/Orphan-Train-Brides-Caroline-Clemmons-ebook/dp/B07TW8JH44
Two award
winning and bestselling authors conspired to bring readers these two
heartwarming stories, A Family For Merry by Caroline Clemmons and A Family For Polly by Jacquie Rogers in the duet, Orphan
Train Brides.
Become a bride or lose her children!
Asked
to help with recording who took which children from the orphan train, Merry and
Polly Bird took advantage of their position. Determined to liberate five
quirky, ragtag orphans not likely to be adopted by caring people, they vowed
the children would not end up as they had fourteen years ago. Back then, Merry
and Polly and the two boys adopted with them from that orphan train worked as
slaves. They received little food, substandard living quarters, and
insufficient clothing to protect against the cold winters.
Mary and Polly’s children love their new home and
family at the sisters’ Mockingbird Boarding House. The rescue idea appears to
have been a great success—until the supervisor from the Children’s Protection
Society arrives. Single women are not allowed to adopt. Merry and Polly each has five days
to find a suitable husband who won’t steal her share of the boarding house.
If you haven’t read these stories, I hope you’ll
give them a read. Let me know how you like them.
