Speech teacher and successful matchmaker Mackenzie Simms decides to find a woman for her friend, handsome newspaper tycoon Rick Duffy. Though they've been each other's go-to dates for the past month, Mac and Rick couldn't be more different: she is outspoken, sarcastic, and completely loathes his privileged lifestyle. He's laid-back, unassuming, and seems comfortable at an upper-class charity function. So why can't she stop thinking about him? Rick knows he and the opinionated-though-adorable Mackenzie are better off as friends, so he agrees to the double-date getaway Mac plans at his family cabin. But seeing Mac cuddle up with her "friendly" date rankles Rick beyond reason, and Mac regrets her matchmaking scheme the minute she sees the way her beauty-queen cousin looks at Rick. Can Mac 'fess up to what's really in her heart, when speaking her mind puts everything at risk?

Amish Cowboys of Montana: Books 1-3
Author: Adina Senft
Publisher: Moonshell Books, Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 668
Book Description
The Montana Millers are an Old Order Amish family ranching in the Siksika Valley of northwestern Montana. They believe in faith, family, and the land. They’ll need all three when love comes to the Circle M! This collection contains the first three books in the series: The Amish Cowboy (a second chance romance), The Amish Cowboy’s Baby (a secret baby romance), and The Amish Cowboy’s Bride (a wrong groom romance). In book one, eldest brother Daniel can do pretty much anything—except forget Lovina Lapp, who broke his heart and married someone safe. After a romance with Daniel that ended when he chose Montana over her, Lovina learned the danger of loving a cowboy. But after God took her husband, she finds herself unexpectedly at the Circle M Ranch, where one look at Daniel tells her there is nothing safe about her feelings for him … In book two, rebel Joshua Miller is the son most likely to break his mother’s heart. His life is all good times and bad choices ... until the day he finds a baby at the door with a note saying the child is his. Sara Fischer returns to Montana to join church, where the only job she can find is on the Circle M—as a nanny. The Amish way of life is the fence that divides them. But can a baby’s trusting smile open their hearts to each other—and to God? In book three, Rebecca Miller is content to dream about a man she saw the previous summer—until one stormy night, she rescues an accident victim and recognizes him as the same man. Noah King arrives at the hospital to find his brother Andrew unconscious and a young Amish woman holding his hand. Noah thinks Rebecca is too good for his handsome, reckless brother—or is that his own heart, longing for what it can’t have? “This story has all that Adina Senft is known to bring to her writing. Complex characters. Family values. Being lost and found in the redemptive Spirit of God. You will enjoy its twists and turns!” —Goodreads The Amish Cowboys of Montana: Books 1-3 collection has a family thread running through each book. No strong language, just a loving kiss and a guaranteed happily ever after. If you like books by Jennifer Spredemann, Jennifer Beckstrand, or Serena B. Miller, you’re in the right place. Enjoy!

Pages : 354
Book Description
For the Amish of Pontotoc, Mississippi, all roads lead to faith, family, and tradition, even when the path is unconventional—especially at Christmas . . . Tillie Gingerich is so in love with Melvin Yoder that she agrees to leave her conservative Amish home to live with him in the English world. But when the struggle to make ends meet leads to conflict, and reveals troubling weaknesses in their relationship, Tillie returns to Pontotoc—pregnant and unmarried. Her loving family accepts her, but to convince the rest of the community, they must turn to the bishop. Distraught, Tillie runs away on Christmas Eve—only to get as far as an isolated house on the edge of town. Levi Yoder, Melvin’s upright distant cousin, is grieving the loss of his wife and wants to be alone. He is hardly pleased to open his door and find a pregnant woman––a painful reminder of all he’s lost. But with an ice storm approaching, he can’t turn Tillie away. Yet as morning nears, the miracle of Christmas brings unexpected challenges, opportunities—and promises for the future . . . Praise for Amy Lillard and her Wells Landing novels “An inspirational story of romance, faith, and trust . . . will appeal to fans of Wanda Brunstetter and Beverly Lewis.” —Library Journal on Caroline’s Secret “Fans of inspirational romance will appreciate Lillard’s vivid characters and positive message.” —Publishers Weekly

Trammel's Trace
Author: Gary L. Pinkerton
Publisher: Texas A&M University Press
ISBN: 1623494699
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
Trammel’s Trace tells the story of a borderlands smuggler and an important passageway into early Texas. Trammel’s Trace, named for Nicholas Trammell, was the first route from the United States into the northern boundaries of Spanish Texas. From the Great Bend of the Red River it intersected with El Camino Real de los Tejas in Nacogdoches. By the early nineteenth century, Trammel’s Trace was largely a smuggler’s trail that delivered horses and contraband into the region. It was a microcosm of the migration, lawlessness, and conflict that defined the period. By the 1820s, as Mexico gained independence from Spain, smuggling declined as Anglo immigration became the primary use of the trail. Familiar names such as Sam Houston, David Crockett, and James Bowie joined throngs of immigrants making passage along Trammel’s Trace. Indeed, Nicholas Trammell opened trading posts on the Red River and near Nacogdoches, hoping to claim a piece of Austin’s new colony. Austin denied Trammell’s entry, however, fearing his poor reputation would usher in a new wave of smuggling and lawlessness. By 1826, Trammell was pushed out of Texas altogether and retreated back to Arkansas Even so, as author Gary L. Pinkerton concludes, Trammell was “more opportunist than outlaw and made the most of disorder.”
