title: Jared
author: Raddon, Charlene
description: Jared Givens rides into town to invite his best gal on a picnic. Before he can get there, he's summoned to the hotel where a young lady he'd never seen before awaits him. A young woman claiming to be his wife.
  Ruth Healy Kimbrough heard something she shouldn't have. Now, she's on the run. Her ex-fiancé wants her silenced forever. Her sister is married to Jared's brother, Barclay, so she travels to Montana seeking help and a place to disappear.
  Will the Givens family hide Healy from Skelly Bernard and keep her alive? Will Jared agree to pretend he's married to a stranger? Or will his bogus marriage turn into a true, loving union in this sweet western romance novella?
