Wanted Bounty Hunter
<p><em><strong>She needs a strong and honorable mail-order husband to ward off the advances of an unwanted suitor and con man!</strong></em></p><p>Orphan and widow Rachel West is returning home to Oregon after eight years of living with her guardian on the East Coast. Thanks to a lavish inheritance from her great-aunt, she now has the funds to realize her dream of opening the Silverpines Finishing School for Young Ladies.</p><p>Unfortunately, a former co-instructor from Boston follows her to Silverpines, claiming a death-bed promise to look after her. Highly suspicious of his intentions, she sends off for a mail-order husband to provide a buffer between them; but she makes it clear in her letter she wishes to court first and only marry if they develop feelings for each other and the “good Lord wills it.”</p><p>As a bounty hunter by trade, Boone Cassidy is accustomed to far more dangerous tasks than ridding spoiled debutantes of their unwanted suitors. He fully expects the uppity Mrs. West to send him packing the moment she realizes a Black man has been sent to her aid. After laying eyes on her at the train station, however, he realizes he’s made a great many incorrect assumptions about the lovely headmistress. </p><p>All of a sudden, thwarting the attentions of her dandified, self-proclaimed beau from Boston becomes a task worthy of his most gallant efforts!<br><br>★ <strong>More Mail Order Romance Stories by Jo</strong> ★<br><br>SILVERPINES<br>The Bounty Hunter's Sister (a sequel to Wanted: Bounty Hunter)<br><br>WIDOWS, BRIDES, AND SECRET BABIES<br>Mail Order Mallory<br>Mail Order Isabella<br><br>ANGEL CREEK CHRISTMAS BRIDES<br>Elizabeth<br>Grace<br><br>MAIL ORDER BRIDES RESCUE SERIES<br>Hot-Tempered Hannah<br>Cold-Feet Callie<br>Fiery Felicity<br>Misunderstood Meg<br>Dare-Devil Daisy<br>Outrageous Olivia<br>Jinglebell Jane<br>Absentminded Amelia<br>Bookish Belinda<br>Tenacious Trudy<br></p> <br>
