Charlie Jonquil is mild-mannered and kind — except when it comes to his one true adversary, Artemis Lancaster. Though Charlie has a brilliant mind for mathematics, Artemis poses a problem he can’t seem to comprehend: How can one be so lovely and so infuriating? A party in London brings him into the company of the maddening young lady, and it is clear that Charlie’s disdain is mutual. But when an unfortunate incident between the pair involving Charlie’s jacket and a glass of raspberry shrub leads to scandal, the sworn enemies are left with only two options.

Publisher's Summary
**USA TODAY Bestseller**
**Amazon #1 Bestselling series in Clean Romance**
Six Award-Winning Authors have contributed new stories to A Timeless Romance Anthology: Mail Order Bride Collection, now a USA TODAY Bestseller! Six historical romance novellas set in the Old West.
In Written in Her Heart, a charming novella by Stacy Henrie, Georgeanna is getting desperate. She can't fund her favorite orphanage unless she marries and secures the rest of her inheritance left by her father. But her father's financial planner, Clay, can't understand why she's not content with her current situation. Georgie determines to send out a notice as a mail order bride to attract suitors who won't know her financial situation. Little does she know, Clay takes up the pen and sends her letters of his own under an assumed name.
In Kristin Holt's delightful novella Wanted: Midwife Bride Dr. Naomi Thornton thinks she has it all: a beautiful house, a loving husband, and a fulfilling career. But when everything she holds dear is ripped away, Naomi has no choice but to start over. What will she find in the wild and untamed Wyoming Territory?
In The Sound of Home, a captivating novella by Annette Lyon, Marilyn is given the choice of either marrying the despicable Victor or being charged with a murder she didn't commit. Refusing to believe that either is her fate, she finds a third option: she answers a mail order bride advertisement and boards a train to Wyoming to wed a man named Harry. Moments after her arrival, she learns that Harry isn't who he seemed to be, and the advertisement turns out to be a giant mistake.
In Sarah M. Eden's endearing novella For Better or Worse Gerald Smith, on the advice of his well-meaning neighbors, has decided it's time to change his lonely existence. Mary Hill, on the advice of her empty pocketbook and non-existent roof over her head, has decided it's time to secure herself a future. A mail-order marriage, they both realize, is no guarantee of happiness, but it is a risk they are willing to take.
Heather B. Moore's sweet novella The Inconvenient Bride sees Carmela traveling from Boston to Colorado, eager to meet the man she's been corresponding with and will soon marry. Her brother's new marriage leaves little room for Carmela in her old life. Upon arrival in Leadville, she faces a rude awakening, and the only one who can understand her predicament is her fiance's brother, Samuel.
The Price of Silver, an engaging novella by Siân Ann Bessey, Katie leaves New York for Idaho to marry Jake, a man she's written to a couple of times. But when she steps off the train, his brother Caleb is there to greet her. Jake has gone to take a mining job he couldn't pass up. Caleb takes Katie back to the family ranch to wait for Jake's return.

Great stories and a fantastic narrator.
Great stories and a fantastic narrator! Her voice is sweet and calming. Hope she narrates more westerns, and she tries regency too. Some of the narrators they pick for that genre are just terrible.

Great stories while I worked.
I love novels but sometimes a novella, or six, is/are just as good. I thoroughly enjoyed all six as they had a bit of angst in the sweet stories that of course ended with an HEA. Christa Lewis was great with her narration and accents. Kept my mind off my tasks that made for an enjoyable quick day.

incredible variety in mail order bride stories
I really enjoyed this collection. I'd begun listening wondering how there could be enough ways to create a mail order bride story without it becoming monotonous over 6 novellas...but I had nothing to fear. Each one was delightfully different and amazingly sweet. I'm so glad to have listened. The narrator did an amazing job and made it an easy listen too.

Excellent Collection
I downloaded this selection because I’ve enjoy Stacy Henrie books. This collection of novellas offers a diversity in plots and characters. The quality of writing makes me want to read Holt, Lyon, Eden and Moore. They are all PG13 rated. Christa Lewis did an excellent narration.
