Desperate, she agrees to find a bride for the man’s son—a stalwart bachelor. Will Clara’s faith and wits help her wrangle a resolution to The Bride Bargain? Product Description When dropped from the wagon train along the Platte River for not pulling their load, Clara Fields is determined to find a way to provide for her newly-widowed aunt. So she strikes a bargain with an aging storekeeper that in exchange for finding a bride for his son Clara can have his house to run a boardinghouse. But Dr. Saul Reed is not interested in getting tied down to Buttonwood in the middle of nowhere, and he certainly has no plans for marriage. Can he shake his determined matchmaker, or will he strike a new bargain with Clara? The Prairie Promises Series: Book 1 - The Bride Bargain Book 2 - The Bride Backfire Book 3 - The Bride Blunder From the Back Cover A Resolute Woman: When dropped from the wagon train for not pulling their load, Clara Fields is desperate to provide for her newly-widowed aunt. Josiah Reed, owner of the Buttonwood Feed and Dry Goods Store, makes Clara what seems a heaven-sent bargain: He’ll sign over his two-story house if she can marry his son off to a local girl in the next month. And a Determined Doctor: Dr. Saul Reed agrees to watch his father’s store while Josiah is away, thinking the slow pace of the prairie would be a welcome respite before Saul establishes his medical practice in Baltimore. But when he finds pretty Clara Fields installed in his father’s house, the gleam in her green eyes promises anything but peace and quiet. Find More than They Bargained for: With his bachelorhood at stake, and her ability to provide for herself and her aunt hanging in the balance, Saul and Clara face off in an unlikely battle. . . .
