Usually ships in 1 business days | | | | | | One ranch. Three sons. Only one will inherit...and on one condition. Tired of waiting for his sons to settle down, Arizona-territory rancher Angus McKettrick announces a competition: the first son to marry and produce a grandchild will inherit Triple M ranch. Now, three distinctly different, equally determined cowboys are searching high and low for brides. Kade McKettrick’s got five mail-order brides-to-be camped out at the local hotel, all more than eager to provide him with the heir that will win him the Triple M ranch. But Kade, the newly appointed marshal, has his hands full with a troublesome outlaw gang. Why, then, is he so easily distracted by pretty “Sister Mandy”—who most assuredly is not the nun she claims to be? On the run from her outlaw stepfather, Mandy Sperrin hides beneath her solemn disguise, and vows to keep her wild, passionate nature from the respectable citizens of Indian Rock. Yet when the handsome marshal makes it clear that he wants her, Mandy gives in to her heated desires.... | | | |

 Doesn't deserve the low ratings it's been getting! Jun 28, 2004
I personally don't see why this book is getting so many low reviews. It seems the biggest complaints are the lack of romance and too much "fiction". This book had all of the elements of a good story, with several twist and raw scenes of the old west that make a western historical fiction so engaging. True, there was not tons of sappy romance, but the readers need to remember that these boys are marrying to gain a ranch, not for love, but I did not find it lacking in "romance". The only reason that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was the situation with Angus and Concepcion. I love the fact that these two married after so many years, but the announcement that they were expecting a baby was a bit out there, given their age. (Angus is pushing 80). Otherwise, the book is worth the read, and one that does not deserve the low ratings.

 Shotgun Bride Feb 04, 2004
I really enjoyed the book. Mandy had to endure many hardships, including losing her entire family in two weeks time, one member (her brother) being killed by her to save her husband's life.Despite her background Kade knew their was only one woman for him, Mandy! There are laughs and tears and moments of gentleness in this novel. Enjoy!

Great Western Romance Dec 04, 2003

I am not sure why everyone is giving his book such low ratings. I read all kinds of romance and I really loved this book. I won't get into the story at all ... other reviewers did a good job of that. I look forward to the 3rd book in this triliogy. I have read book 1 and 2 and have loved them both!!!

 Fiction, not romance Nov 25, 2003
By Angela Wood
I was expecting this book to be more of romance than fiction. The story focuses on finding the outlaws who killed and robbed money from the McKettricks. Amanda poses as a nun, but Kade McKettrick believes she is hiding something. Her past catches up to her when Gig Curry,a mean, old bf of her mom's come to threaten her life for her half brother, Cree. Kade becomes Marshall when the one prior to him had a stroke. He captures Gig after a horse race who is accused of murdereing 12 soldiers and robbing. Throughout the book they try to solve the problem. They also try to resolve the relationship between the McKettrick brothers and Holt. I thought the story reflected too much on the outlaw problem rather than having it focus on the relationship between Kade and Mandy. Romance is lacking in this book, which is why I would call it more fiction than anything else. The book was a bit dry. This is not something worth buying, perhaps buy as used or rent from library.
