The Mail Order Bride's Promise — Blythe Carver

Aileen Riley's not sure she belongs at Shady Forks any longer. Sure, she loves the kids. She loves being a nanny. And Theresa's still her best friend, but… So, what's a gal to do when she needs to leave? She takes a page from Theresa's book and answers an advertisement for a mail order bride. She doesn't expect to find herself married under suspicious circumstances. She doesn't expect to find a lot of things. And yet she does. Now she's missing the Winchesters, she's in danger, and she's scared for her life. Donald Ferris isn't the type who likes to be deceitful, but when his boss asks him to perpetrate a deception on a young woman who's answered a mail order bride ad, well, a fella can't say no, can he? No, Donald can't. Not to the man who's been almost like a father to him for the last decade. So he goes on with the charade, hating himself for it. And then really hating himself after he meets the lovely Aileen.  Now Donald's in a jam. Can he tell her the truth? Would she forgive him?
