About this eBook

A desperate journey to an unknown land. A selfless act of kindness. A marriage of convenience.

Davina MacQueen yearns for a loving family. After fleeing from her conniving father in Scotland, she arrives in Bear Grass Springs, Montana Territory, with hope and determination. Soon, she is an integral part of daily life on Sorcha and Frederick’s ranch. Unfortunately, the giant of a man, Slims, is to be her tutor in the kitchen. He’s intolerable. Insufferable. And all too attractive for her liking.

Slims has no time for teaching Miss Sorcha’s cousin. Against his will, he begins to yearn for the time alone with her, even if it’s obvious she loathes him. What he wouldn’t give to trace his fingers through her silky, golden hair and hear her laugh. 

When they are stranded in the middle of a blizzard, he is shocked by her dedication to his wellbeing. Upon arrival in town, she is threatened by vicious gossip, and he realizes he will do anything in his power to protect her. If only she would accept his love as readily as she accepts his proposal.

Will Davina learn to trust in Slims’s love again, or will she allow the fears from her past to keep her alone?

Immerse yourself in 1880’s Bear Grass Springs, Montana Territory!

Ratings and reviews

A chattel most of her life, Davina takes the chance of escaping her father's household before he can marry her off to a second unwelcome husband. Despite her low self-esteem, she nevertheless has stamina and gumption as she crosses a foreign ocean to take refuge with an unknown relative. Aware of the enmity between the two families, Davina brings proof of her identity, not realising that more than one wound will be healed. Slims is no stranger to betrayal and brokenness and is therefore very cautious, even aggressive when the strange but beautiful woman is discovered trying to walk in the middle of winter to his boss' ranch. This novel brought to my awareness once again that a person cannot accept the love of another unless you love yourself first, and Davina had a hard time believing that she had any worth after a lifetime of emotional abuse. This sweet story speaks of the healing power of love and learning to believe in oneself. It is well written, is a standalone and comes to a happy conclusion. I received a copy of this book as a gift and this is my honest and voluntary review.

I felt like this book was written in a hurry and the story line was childish. it was a focused on other people in the previous books and explaining who they were. she didn't develop the main couple.
