Publisher's summary
The things a woman in love will do to keep her man...
Belinda Fairfax is tired of waiting for Colt Branson to remember she's still in love with him. She put their wedding plans on hold and supported his decision to travel west in search of his missing sister. She championed his plan to open a mail-order bride agency — one with a Gallant Rescuers Clause to keep other brides safe from the kind of trouble his sister ran into.
But she’s waited so long for him to return home to marry her that she's afraid another woman may have captured his heart along the way. Without the funds to travel west and find out for herself if he's still single, she sees no other choice but to sign one of his blasted mail-order bride contracts and send herself to Arizona as a prospective bride. That ought to get his attention!
Heartwarming historical romance with a dash of humor, a twist of intrigue, and a happily-ever-after! Each title in this series can be read as a standalone.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,479
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.
