About this ebook

Loreli Winters never imagined she'd end up a "mail-order bride" in middle-of-nowhere Kansas -- until the two adorable orphan nieces of a dusky dream named Jake Reed beg her to be their new "mama." And one look at the dark, devastatingly handsome man is enough to entice her to abandon her California plans and stay put for a while in this one-horse frontier town.

Strong, sensible Jake was hoping for a wife to help him raise his girls, but Loreli may be more than he can handle. He can't stop wondering what it would be like to hold the fiery enchantress close and kiss her deeply. Surely he could never compete with the sophisticated gents she has known, yet he intends to try. But will his honest passion be enough to take a chance on a long-shot called love?

Ratings and reviews

As usual my girl hit the nail on the head. Lorelei and Jake's story was beautiful and a true page turner. I love reading Ms Jenkins stories. I wish at least one if not all of her stories were turned into movies and shown just as she wrote them.

The quarantine/stay @ home order was my excuse to buy all the Beverly Jenkins books I didn't already have. This made staying locked in worth it. Awesome story!💞

I love all of her books. The only thing about this book is I wished for was a little difference in the ending and was hoping she had to play Jake in a card game
