A mail-order bride and a mother to orphans each find unexpected love with cowboys in these two inspirational historical westerns.
The Cowboy's Surprise Bride
Traveling to Canada's Northwest Territories is a chance for Linette Edwards to escape a dreaded marriage in England, and she eagerly accepts Eddie Gardiner's written invitation. How could she know that Eddie thinks he's marrying her friend, Margaret? Eddie planned for a well-bred bride, not a ragamuffin stranger with a little boy in her care. He'll shelter them until springtime and no longer. But before the snow clears, his heart begins to thaw, too.
The Cowboy's Unexpected Family
Cassie Godfrey is determined to be self-sufficient. But her plans are interrupted by four young orphans-and one persistent cowboy. If she'll care for the children until their uncle claims them, Roper Jones will build Cassie's house. All Roper can offer Cassie is the love and acceptance she claims not to need. But dreams, like hearts, can change . . .

Linda Ford lives on a ranch in Alberta, Canada. Growing up on the prairie and learning to notice the small details it hides gave her an appreciation for watching God at work in His creation. Her upbringing also included being taught to trust God in everything and through everything-a theme that resonates in her stories. She and her husband raised fourteen children-ten adopted. She currently shares her home with her husband, a grown son and a live-in paraplegic client.
