Lessie: Bride of Utah — Kristin Holt

Lessie: Bride of Utah is #45 in the unprecedented 50-book American Mail-Order Brides Series. Each title in this 45-author series stands alone.

LESSIE: BRIDE OF UTAH
~ by USA Today Bestselling Author Kristin Holt ~

Lessie and her twin sister Josie are entirely on their own. When the Brown Textile Mill burns and Lessie loses her job, long-unemployed Josie insists they seize the opportunity for a fresh start with a pair of husbands in Utah Territory... their best chance of remaining together.

The illusion shatters minutes after the wedding ceremonies when Lessie's new husband Richard Cannon sends the other couple far away to New Mexico Territory. Cannon Mining is under attack from within, and Lessie's husband requires her help to bridge the chasm between his silver-spoon upbringing and the workers he employs-- men who won't hesitate to kill to achieve their goals.

Can a genuine and abiding love be forged from a marriage of convenience?

Set in 1890 Territory of Utah, this Sweet Western Historical Mail-Order Bride Novel is 250 paperback pages long, and rated a mild PG for situational violence (mining camp) and brief references to the newlyweds' marital intimacies (not shown within the scenes). All of Kristin Holt's titles are G- and PG-rated: "Sweet Romances Appropriate for All Audiences".

Lessie's story is complete with her own HEA (happily ever after). Her twin sister's story (Josie: Bride of New Mexico, #47 in American Mail-Order Brides Series) is intertwined yet also stands alone. Many readers have suggested reading Lessie first, followed by Josie, though no spoilers will interrupt the story's flow if Josie is read first. Both books are designed to be read independently--so no need to read Josie to enjoy Lessie's full story and hard-won happy ending.
