Wishing Springs, Texas-Summer 1870

An Ever After Summer is a historical of Matt McConnell's ancestors on his father's side. You can read this before Matt's story comes out. Also, A Cowboy For Katie is his mother's ancestors story...love from all those years ago will help Matt in his love story Heart Healing Cowboy.

Mathew McConnell needs help with his baby so he's sent for a mail order bride. All he needs is someone to love his baby, he's fine. He'll never lose love again, or trust that God has him in His thoughts. His baby has no mother and a father who has to work really hard to keep the ranch going. So, a mail order bride is his only resource and he made it clear in his ad that he needs a practical woman to keep house and be a mother to his two-year old baby girl-Bible believers need not apply-and he means it.

Ellie has had a rough life, and her aunt has told her she has to be a mail order bride. Ellie looks at it as a gift, her opportunity to make her dream of finding love real. Until she meets Matthew she had no idea the handsome heart throb-didn't want a "Bible thumper-what's wrong with being a "Bible thumper" anyway?

She's lived a tough life and been accused of being a born killer, killing three before the age of one, so being a Bible thumper isn't so bad. Now, she's determined to show him she's tougher than she looks-and just the girl he needs.
