Tramp's Bride

Texas, 1807. Tramp Hart knows shame for letting his friends down. But when he returns to Cinders' ranch, he's shocked to discover a headstrong woman living in his house. Desperate for his own space, he sets out to get the woman married off in a hurry.

Ilene Duffy's mail-order marriage almost broke her heart. Narrowly avoiding a scam that would force her into the beds of strangers, a rancher named Cinders and his wife Shannon put a roof over her head. But when she gets an unwanted housemate, she's determined not to let the hunky arrival push her into marriage.

After Ilene suffers a nasty fall and Tramp comes to the rescue, both of their hearts flutter at the hand of destiny. Will a tough cowboy and a city girl ignore their attraction, or will true love ride in to steal their hearts?

Tramp's Bride is a sweet standalone Western romance in the Mail Order Brides of Texas series. If you like strong-jawed cowboys, gutsy heroines, and conflicting chemistry on the ranch, then you'll love Kathleen Ball's heartwarming novel.
