The Calling Birds: The Fourth Day (The 12 Days Of Christmas Mail-Order Brides)

Many years have passed since Bernadette Bellamy fled the Cariboo Gold Rush and her reputation as the sister of a French-Canadian gang of thieves. Armed with only an honest talent for sewing and a willingness to lead a solitary life on the run, she stays one step ahead of everyone seeking her brothers' last-and now lost-heist. Until a craving to settle down makes her reinvent herself as Birdie Bell, a dress shop owner. The arrival of an old foe combined with her desire to hold onto her treasure trove of fabrics has Birdie joining a wagonload of brides bound for a remote town. After losing his leg and his wife, Jack Peregrine buries his pain under a mountain-high pile of work. He only agrees to sign up for a mail-order bride to save the town of Noelle, keep his freighting business, and care for his absentminded grandfather. But Jack's request for a sturdy bride who won't crumble under his burdens brings him a woman as tiny as she is troubled. Can two mismatched people band together to become the perfect match? A wanted woman's flight, a man in pursuit of honesty, not stolen gold...and only nine days left to save the town.
