Adele Angel Creek Christmas Brides Book 18; by Cynthia Woolf

 

Adele

Angel Creek Christmas Brides Book 18; by Cynthia Woolf

I really did enjoy this book. Cynthia has a way of bringing the past to life. I also love how she merges people into families.

Adele Jensen is running from New York and a man she thought she loved but after 10 years knows she does not. She wants so much more in life, a husband, and children. So, she is on her way to Montana as a Mail Order Bride. She just needs to keep her past a secret, and hope no one comes looking for her.

Edward Warton is a single father because his wife ran off with another man and died before they got out of town. Now he is looking for a woman to be a mother for his seven year old daughter. He is only looking for someone to be there for her and ease his need but not his heart. He will never trust a woman again.

Richard Douglas cannot believe Adele ran from him. He gave her everything and as far as he is concerned, she belongs to him. Therefore, he will bring her back to New York. When he finds her and lets, he tells her she is going with him he does not like the answer No. So now if he cannot have her no one will.

Will Edward see he needs Adele as much as his daughter does? Will Adele be able to stay with Edward and his daughter? Will Richard take Adele back with him?  Will someone be killed in all the plotted moves? Remember there is more at stake here than just these people and their love.
