Bride Of Washington

De: Caroline Clemmons, American Mail Order Brides

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A humorous Victorian romance about second chances, unexpected attraction, and finding love where you least expect it.

After a fire destroys the Massachusetts factory where she worked, Patience Eaton faces a string of job failures and a future filled with uncertainty. Hoping for a fresh start, she travels across the country in 1890 to Washington to marry the man her father selected through a matchmaker. But when Patience arrives, she’s dismayed to find her intended groom is older than her father and not at all what she imagined. Instead, she’s offered a respectable position in his boarding house and a job in the office of his commercial apple orchard—working closely with his handsome, brooding son.

Stone Kincaid has poured himself into the family business after a false accusation destroyed his own chance at happiness. When he meets his prospective stepmother, he’s convinced she’s only interested in his father’s fortune. Determined to protect his family, Stone keeps a watchful eye on Patience, but their constant proximity leads to sparks neither expected.

As misunderstandings and family tensions rise, Patience and Stone must find common ground and learn to trust each other if they hope to turn their reluctant partnership into a lasting love.

Perfect for readers who love sweet Victorian romance, humorous historical romance, mail order bride stories, family saga novels, strong heroine tales, slow-burn romance, and uplifting happily ever afters.
