Mail Order Bride: CLEAN Western Historical Romance: The Governor’s Half-Blind Scarred Bride

Brides of El Paso Book1, #1

In 1873 New York, where communities were grappling with the after math of the civil wars many wounded and disfigured came home and were lauded for their efforts.

Tara Whitter who had been born in one eye with a scar running across it, her disability made her inferior.

ABANDONED & PENNILESS . . . . .

As a child, she had grown with her deficit being used as a defining factor by the people around her. . .

She try . . . well . . . She will always TRY as she might to show them that she was strong willed, caring and gentle but eventually she will still be treated like something broken.

At twenty-eight she felt her life was at a cross roads.

Would she stay in Long Island with the psychologically abusive siblings she had inherited?

What would her life be like if she stayed?

Over-worked and under-appreciated Tara decided that it was time to get on up and seek a better life elsewhere.

Whilst a four day train ride away in El Paso, Texas, the governor Jonathan Banks was trying to adjust to life without his recently departed wife. His four year old son in particular was in need of a mother figure.

He had two options :

“become the mother his son would need” OR “he could place an ad for a mail order bride.”

For him, a woman from El Paso would bring nothing new to his son’s life and so he had to get a wife who had more to offer.

But that’s a problem - He did not expect the application that would most appeal to him, would be that of a handicapped woman.

Could she be the answer to his problems despite her lack of one good eye and the scar forever graced her face?

Time would be the only answer to that question . . .

* As Tara brings life and perspective to El Paso, they would all come to see that beauty was more than just physical or Tara would find herself homeless, penniless and without a shred of remaining hope.*

… “A story of hope, romance and true love.” …
