Description

Noramary came out of the parlor into the hall. Stunned by what she had just heard, she felt slightly light-headed and leaned against the closed door for a moment to steady herself. The shock of Winnie's elopement during the night had been followed by a second -- the staggering request of her foster parents that she step into her errant cousin's place as the bride of Duncan Montrose! "So you see, my dear, why we must ask this of you?" Aunt Betsy's voice rang in her ears. Noramary closed her show more eyes, bringing back the scene that had just taken place. As her aunt had explained the dilemma Winnie's irresponsibility had caused and what must now be done, Noramary had sat very still, eyes downcast, hands folded in her lap, hearing but not fully absorbing her aunt's words. Now those same words burst upon her, strong and clear: "--marry Duncan Montrose!" Valiant Bride is a historical romance that brings to life a young woman's choice between duty and love. show less

These books are super easy and fast reading, but this one suffered from plot problems in the lack of communication amongst all the family members.
Also...these have clearly been scanned from the hard copy in order to create an ebook, and there are some glaring OCR errors... let's just say it doesn't do much for the atmosphere of the story when the 'c' in fact is replaced by an 'r'.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a love story without the vulgarity that so much of the world is today. I was really happy with the ending and I cannot wait to read more from this series.
