The Pastor's Replacement Bride

If you've read my novel Redeeming Love which I co-wrote with my friend George McVey you know we share a love for the late 1800's. We also share some character's. His character Nugget Nate is the brother to my character Aggie Cutler. They are definitely a pair of characters.

Well, PG, as we call Pastor George, has begun a new series I'm sure many of you will like. It's a Mail Order Bride series and the first one has been released.
The Pastor's Replacement Bride

Joshua, the pastor of the town of Sanctuary, Montana, is asked to contact minister friends of his asking for young women who would be willing to come west to become brides to the single men of Sanctuary. The ladies will correspond with the men by letter before they come to town. He's being pressured by the deacons of the church to marry so he decides to write to a lady of his own.

Hattie is in a difficult situation. As an orphan in Chicago she was indentured out as kitchen help to a brothel at age twelve. Now on the verge of turning twenty-one the brothel owner wants her to move upstairs with a change of profession. Something she does not want to do. Through help from her Chicago preacher she is able to travel to Sanctuary.

I don't want to give too much away. The book is good and the story well written. The Amazon release date is January 6 for $3.99 but will be available in early release for .99.

The Pastor's Replacement Bride been released on Amazon for Kindle. It's the first book in a new series. It's also available for Kindle Unlimited reading for free. Always a good thing.
