A Bride for the Mining Heir: A Historical Western Romance Novel (Brides of the Untamed Frontier)

Briar Lockhart has weathered loss more times than she can count. After a tragic accident claims her sister and brother-in-law, she becomes guardian of their twins and the heir to a struggling ranch in Kansas plains. With no one left to help, she places an ad for a mail-order husband—never expecting the stranger who answers to change her life.

Landon McCord once had everything—a name, a legacy, and a future as heir to his family’s thriving mining empire. When his stepfather’s greed turns murderous, he flees West under a false identity, answering a mail-order groom advertisement to stay hidden. Yet the family waiting for him soon feels more real than the one he left behind…

As Briar and Landon face the trials of ranch life and the stirrings of a love they never planned for, their fragile bond deepens. But secrets can’t stay buried forever, and the danger Landon escaped may be riding straight for them. Will the truth destroy everything they’ve fought for?

“A Bride for the Mining Heir” is a historical western romance novel of approximately 67,000 words. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
