Longing to find true love, Kate Millington arrives in British Columbia on a bride ship. With countless men waiting to snag a bride, Kate has no trouble getting engaged. It’s staying engaged that’s the problem. After traveling to the remote mining town of Williamsville to marry her newest fiancé, she finds herself single again. As the prosperous owner of a gold mine, Zeke Hart has everything he’s ever wanted except for a wife. At Kate’s arrival, he takes it upon himself to protect his childhood friend from the men clamoring to court her. The more he renews her friendship, the more he wants to win her for himself. But as much as Kate admires Zeke, she’s resolved not to marry someone who doesn’t share her faith. When Zeke begins receiving anonymous threats, he unwittingly puts them both in grave danger. In the midst of peril, the past rises up to haunt them both, and Zeke realizes the fight for Kate’s affection may be his biggest challenge yet. “”This excellent series launch will leave fans eager for the next entry.”” –Publishers Weekly starred review The Bride Ships Series Book 1: A Reluctant Bride Book 2: The Runaway Bride Book 3: A Bride of Convenience Book 4: Almost a Bride Other books by Jody Hedlund: The Orphan Train Series Prequel Novella: An Awakened Heart Book 1: With You Always Book 2: Together Forever Book 3: Searching for You The Beacons of Hope Series Prequel Novella: Out of the Storm Book 1: Love Unexpected Book 2: Hearts Made Whole Book 3: Undaunted Hope Book 4: Forever Safe Book 5: Never Forget The Michigan Brides Collection Unending Devotion A Noble Groom Captured by Love The Hearts of Faith Collection The Preacher’s Bride The Doctor’s Lady Rebellious Heart Historical Luther and Katharina Newton and Polly For a complete list of Jody’s novels, visit her Amazon page or website – jodyhedlund.com —- ISBN: 9781733753449
