Description
Abigail McKinnie refuses to allow her sisters to be dispersed across the nation as mail order brides. Despite the fact the union soldiers took everything from them during their march through Atlanta-their lands scorched, house burned, food stolen-she won’t give up. With a plan in place, she sets out for Kansas to her second cousin under the guise of marriage. But instead, she plans to convince him that the seven of them can help run the homestead for him. Her plan is full proof, until she makes the arduous journey to discover he’s dead.
Owen Baker vows to never have a woman in his life again after the death of so many in his life, but when Abigail McKinnie struts onto his land claiming ownership on behalf of her dead cousin, he’s dumbfounded by her drive and beauty. Despite her abilities and their attraction, he vows to throw her over his horse to deliver her to the first train home the minute she recuperates from her trip.

Love on the Prairie
5By jane2053Great readNot for me
1By SweetBelle313Main characters flee their scorched plantation, the poor things had their “slaves abandon them...” (from the first page). Not interested in reading further. If you feel that the issue of slavery is either trivial or had a good side, you might enjoy this book. Like I said, not for me...Is that all?
2By PRSbw58I was so disappointed in the writer. This was a somewhat enticing premise initially, but the story was uneven, somewhat confusing in other areas, and frustrating to read. I felt totally cheated by the ending especially! For Pete’s Sake, at least try to make sense. So disappointed.Love on the Praire
5By Trena10Enjoyed this book-the hardships and trials and hard work that the pioneers went through are overwhelming but love came when least expectedMg,&Aj’s absqsrmh sc fjolusoao

4By El G MAI enjoyed this book very much. It was easy to read with just enough trouble to keep it interesting. Will have to read the next in the series.Not my cup of tea.
3By GreyGirl50I have always been a big fan of mail order bride stories and this one had a storyline that really tugged at my heartstrings because of the bleak future of our heroine, Abigail, and her six sisters who are traumatized after the Yankees burn their Georgia plantation to the ground. She accepts a marriage proposal from her cousin William and travels to Kansas in hopes that he will take in her sisters as well, but when she arrives his partner Owen informs Abigail that William is dead. Abigail's iron will and stubborn pride are commendable and Owen's dedication to her is admirable, but I feel this storyline became way too depressing for my taste, and the romance was lost in the overwhelming violence and brutality. I read a complimentary copy of this book and all opinions expressed in my voluntary review are completely my own.
