The charming Jeremy Willets thought writing away for a mail-order bride a wise decision. He just had to find a way to break it to his family. They valued true love, after all. True love wasn’t so easy to find in a frontier territory where men outnumbered the women eight to one. He never expected the woman with whom he was corresponding to show up at the door of his family’s ranch, unannounced and ready for a wedding.
Spunky Caroline Cadhill staked everything on finding a groom as far away from Cincinnati as possible. The letters Jeremy sent her seemed heartfelt and witty. Yet he hadn’t made a commitment. With danger threatening and her brother vanished, her only choice had been to run, right into Jeremy’s arms. Now she isn’t sure which is more dangerous, the men chasing her or the smile of her cowboy would-be groom.
Between a boisterous matchmaking family and a threat from her past, Caroline and Jeremy will have their hands full. But if they persevere, they may find their sudden romance turning into a forever love.
If you like warm, witty historical romances, then you’ll love this feel-good story set in the Pacific Northwest by an award-winning, bestselling author.

Hott Review:
I can’t even imagine what was going on inside the Willets’ heads when Caroline appeared. Sure Jeremy was an adult but to have a woman show up at the house, in the middle of nowhere, and announce that she’s come for him had to have shocked even the most gracious host. And poor Jeremy, he wasn’t quite ready for her to show up. Honestly, I couldn’t stop laughing… and considering how I’d react in her shoes.
I really enjoyed Sudden Mail-Order Bride. I loved the Willets family and their relationship. It’s honoring, respectful and loving. Something that’s not seen often. I loved – especially being more on Mrs. Willets end of the spectrum – that Caroline and Jeremy didn’t just say ‘I do’. Even though they’d discussed the arrangement and she made a life-altering decision, they still took the time to be sure they were doing the right thing. So in addition to enjoying the characters and the relationship, I loved the thoughtfulness Ms. Scott suggests.
If you’re ready for a sweet romance that’s fun and has a few twists, Regina Scott’s Sudden Mail-Order Bride is the book for you. I certainly can’t wait to read the next book in the series!
