June and brides go together like orange blossoms and white roses in a bridal bouquet. Now three stories filled with passion and promise, star-crossed lovers and whispered vows create a wondrous collection to celebrate the season when wedding bells ring...
That Barlow Woman by Valerie Kirkwood. Yankee Eleanor Barlow, with her newfangled ideas, is making her Louisville department store a success. But Kit McCarron, owner of a rival emporium, has another idea-to romance Eleanor and awaken her dreams of an old-fashioned engagement.
The Bride and the Brute by Laurel O'Donnell. The arranged marriage between the innocent daughter of Lord Cullen and Reese Harrington, one of England's most powerful lords, leads to a shocking wedding night when the revelation of the groom's real motives begins a drama of simmering desire.
A Bride For Gideon by Patricia Werner. Pony Express rider Lou Farland can shoot and rides as well as a man, but she feels she can never be enough of a lady to win US Marshal Gideon Preston's heart. Until a Colorado range war makes them allies in a battle for justice and equals in the perilous territory called love. From a smoke-free home.
