Description

Elwood Hunter was in love. With books ... He collected them, he read them, he wanted to make them his vocation. There was only one problem, two really. His father and mother told him he'd never make any money writing or selling books. And worse, they wanted him to get married to a woman he didn't even like! This left Elwood with two choices. Defy his father, leave Boston and be disinherited, or stay and work in his father's shipping business and marry a mean-spirited woman. He packed his bags right away ... Dorcas Minx wasn't looking for love, and she certainly wasn't going to find it with Vernon Fink! The man was detestable! So when she found out her mother and father had an arranged marriage planned between she and Vernon, there was only one thing to do! Run! Can two people running from a marriage they don't want, find what they really want without their pasts catching up to them? Find out in this sweet, clean, wholesome tale of romance set in the old west! Another fun romp from the Brides of Noelle series.
