A Mail Order Bride for the Brother — Blythe Carver

Sue Cayden is the last of her friends to leave the orphanage in Cedarville, Nevada, heading to Deepwater, Texas for her eighteenth birthday. She hopes to find love, safety and happiness in the same town her three friends came to during the year before. Her birthday proves to bring to a close the quartet of friends coming to Deepwater to make their lives. Will she find what she's looking for? Fred Louis is the wealthy son of the mayor and an all-around fun gentleman. Despite his upbeat nature and positive outlook, the woman he hoped to marry from boyhood lead him to the altar only to abandon him when he proposed for her hand in marriage, destroying his heart. It's been two years and his brother, Ryan, has lost patience with his good-natured brother. He writes to Sue, who he knows is coming to Deepwater, posing as his brother and asking her to allow him to court her once she arrives. All without Fred knowing. How will his brother react? Will he reject Sue? As he expects, Fred is not the kind of man who would hurt a woman he doesn't know. Willing to give it a shot at least, Fred agrees to see Sue on a social level. The only obstacle in their way is a seemingly dangerous ranch hand who takes a shine to Sue. Will Fred win her heart before the man, Brad, pushes his way in? Will Sue even give Brad the time of day? Fred and Sue are a good couple. Will they both find the love that's right in front of them? Or will Brad's influence get in the way?
