A Convenient Heart

Spinster schoolmarm Merritt Harding is done waiting for the future she's always wanted, which is why she answered a mail-order bride ad and is anticipating her groom's arrival on Christmas Eve in Calvin, Wyoming, 1892.

Jack Easton steps off the train to elude a hired gun, and his plan to catch the next train out falls apart when he's mistaken for Merritt's intended. But the Jack in front of her — charming, evasive, and too perfect to be real — is nothing like the mild-mannered man who wrote her letters.

As their wedding day approaches, Jack can't bear to hurt the woman drawing him out of hiding. When the truth comes out, will Merritt's heart survive it?
