It seems that the lovely lady who told them about their bride is also husbandless and has been left standing in the train station.  That's when they decide then and there to make her their bride.  All she has to do is agree.MAIL ORDER BRIDE FOR TWO made me blush more than once.  The men, Logan and Derek, are sin personified and totally dreamy.  Their treatment of Clarissa was tender, yet forceful.  They knew they wanted her - they knew she wanted them.  The rest fell into place quite nicely.I am addicted to ménage love stories. I can't help it. There is just something about being cherished by two alpha men that just makes me swoon. MAIL ORDER BRIDE FOR TWO by Elle St. James is such a book.  Provocative and naughty loves scenes mixed with a stirring plot made me enjoy MAIL ORDER BRIDE FOR TWO from cover to cover.Natalie S.
