The Mountain Man’s Wrong Mail-Order Bride (Mountain Man Sanctuary Season 2)

I wasn’t looking for love. I was looking for help.

My wife’s been gone five years. My daughter starts school in the fall. And I’m a wrangler at the Lost & Found Guest Ranch running on no sleep, rotating babysitters, and borrowed time.

So I signed up with a mail-order bride agency and asked for a widow. Someone practical. No feelings. No complications. I got Iris Clarke instead.

Twenty-two. Not a widow. Not who I sent for. Standing on my porch with her sister’s acceptance letter and a stubbornness that rivals these mountains. Her sister took the deposit and ran.

Iris came anyway.

I should send her home. She’s too young, too bright, too damn beautiful for a man like me to be noticing.

But she has my daughter smiling within the first hour after we say “I Do”, and something cracks in my chest that I thought was sealed shut.

So I make a deal. She stays. We pretend. Except Iris doesn’t stay in the neat little box I built for her. She’s in my kitchen. In my barn. In my head at 2am when she’s sleeping a mere stairwell away.

I’m thirty-six, widowed, and I swore I’d never let anyone close again. She’s making me a liar.

The Mountain Man’s Wrong Mail-Order Bride is a spicy, age-gap, forced proximity, mail-order bride, mistaken identity romance featuring a widowed mountain man wrangler and the stubborn cowgirl who refused to leave.

This book is part of the Mountain Man Sanctuary Series, Season 2. This can be read as a standalone with a guaranteed HEA.
