Wishes For A Better Life (Four Historical Romances) - E-book - ePub

The Woman With Furry Arms & The Kind Arkansas Rancher - A circus performer who is very short and has furry arms, escapes her servitude in a circus side show and becomes the mail order bride to a rancher; all the while looking over her shoulder and fearing that the circus manager will hunt her down. Overweight, Older & Unmarried - An overweight and older woman goes to Texas, expecting to be the wife of a cowboy whose picture she has never seen; and is shocked when she sees him, as he is a bitter reminder of a family tragedy.
Off To The Scruffy Silver Miner - A pregnant widow is taken by a crotchety old matchmaker to a silver miner in Nevada, but when she meets him she's rather taken aback by his scruffy appearance and drunken habits. And, she doesn't know how he'll take the news of her pregnancy. A Rough Hewn Cowboy - A woman decides to become a mail order bride but goes west under subterfuge - she already has a man lined up even though she will be supposedly matched up with a cowboy by the company who is paying her way.
When she gets there, she can't find him, so settles for an unappetizing but un-assigned man. Things do go downhill rather fast from that point onward.
