Showing results for "the escape" in Westerns

Her husband is dead. She's pregnant. And her odious brother-in-law is forcing her hand in marriage. Betty Rochester can't abide the thought of Garrett having anything to do with her child. Or her. She has to escape and fast. Her only hope is to get as far away from Boston—and Garrett—as she can. But Betty has run out of options. Except one. Her sister became a mail-order bride, so why can't she? But Betty doesn't count on her mail-order husband rejecting her when he discovers she's with child. Now she's thousands of miles from home with a man who can barely look her in the face.

Bertie Bennett is out of options. After losing her parents and her job, she’s spent six months living under her Aunt Joan’s roof—only to discover Joan plans to marry her off to the most cold-hearted man in Boston. Desperate for escape, Bertie takes a chance and applies to become a Mail Order Bride, trusting that a stranger in the West offers better prospects than her aunt’s schemes.
