When a mail-order bride schemes to make her husband fall deeply and desperately in love with her... Jameson Ford's dream is to turn the remote mountain community of El Vaquero into the biggest cattle town in Texas. When he submits an application for a mail-order bride, he's not looking for love. To him, acquiring a wife is simply one of his duties for pioneering a town. An impoverished debutante and former life of the party, Penelope Copeland carves out a new life as a working-class girl in post-war Atlanta - that is, until a gang of pickpockets forces her to flee town as a mail-order bride. She takes one look at her unsmiling groom at the altar and decides that two things need to happen to make their marriage work. Number one, make him laugh. Number two, make him fall in love with her. How hard can it be for a southern belle to lasso the heart of one stubborn cowboy? MAIL ORDER BRIDES ON THE RUN A complete trilogy - read them all!
