A Wyoming marriage of convenience...
Agatha Magee has put her difficult past behind her and is living an independent life at the circus. But when William English rescues her—from being shot out of a cannon—their scandalous situation leaves them no option but to get married!
William has no intention of making this more than a marriage in name only. Agatha must somehow change his mind if she’s to have the family she’s always yearned for...
She bent her head, kissed him, and he didn’t have the good sense to end it.
She had been to the bakeshop! The lingering flavor of vanilla invaded his senses. With a twist and a swoop, he shifted her body down. Now he was the one on top, the one directing the kissing.
In a second the aroma of baked goods was gone, leaving in its place the heady scent of woman.
He shoved back her bonnet, loosened a pin from her hair. Soft locks tumbled over his hands, tangled in his fingers.
Why was it he felt triumphant and guilty at the same time? The woman was his wife, dash it! He deserved more than kisses. And, judging by the way her shapely bottom shifted against him, she wanted more...
Thank you for picking up The Rancher’s Inconvenient Bride. In the hustle-bustle of everyday life, I’m happy that you have chosen to slow down and spend a few hours with Agatha Magee.
If you have read The Cowboy’s Cinderella, you will know that Agatha is nothing like her twin sister, Ivy. They are like sunshine and shadow, with Ivy being confident and outgoing and Agatha being timid and fearful.
But being timid and fearful is not all there is to our bruised Agatha. As she struggles to find her way from helplessness to independence she discovers the courageous woman inside her. She goes after the life that she wants for herself, even when she wants to hide away.
I believe we can all feel some kinship for Agatha. Every day we face challenges that we would like to run from but cannot...the car breaks down, the bills are past due, the computer crashes or your sweet toddler raises the roof while you wait in a checkout line.
Some days we need to call upon our inner lioness, go out and claim life’s joy. And some days we need to find a quiet place and let it all pass.
I hope you find a bit of escape and a bit of cheer in Agatha’s journey.
