Mail Order Bride: A Western Tale of Love and Fate - Paperback

by Leo Du Lac (Author)

Buck Garett is foreman on his brother's ranch, and goes regularly to the cantina in Las Collinas for a night with Zulinda. She is the only woman in the Arizona Territory who will share her bed with him, and even that has a price--a dollar. Although Buck is really in love with his brother's wife, whom he has rescued from the Indians, he begins to think he should have a wife of his own. He has the local scribe write a letter answering an ad in a Chicago paper from a nurse who will marry a well-to-do rancher. But Buck, no well-to-do rancher, is half drunk and doesn't remember doing this. Beautiful and young Suzy Carver accepts the offer and is soon on her way. That's when the trouble begins. And then there is the determined Frenchman, not to mention the Apaches robbing wagon trains. Buck has his hands full.
