Brides series (Deeanne Gist)

"Set in 1640's Colonial Virginia, a marriage of convenience becomes most inconvenient when the bride proves more than the planter had bargained for"--Provided by publisher.

Set to lose half his timberland in 1866 Washington Territory unless he finds a wife soon, widower Joe Denton places an order for a bride who can cook. When she arrives, the bonnie lass certainly cooks up a storm--but she knows nothing about marrying Joe.
