The Rancher’s Bargain Bride Ironhart Brothers of Cedar Hollow Book

A marriage born of desperation. A love neither of them saw coming.
When his father’s will threatens to strip the family ranch away unless all four Ironhart brothers marry within the year, eldest brother Caleb Ironhart does the only practical thing he can think of: he answers a mail-order bride advertisement. He isn’t looking for love — he’s looking for a solution.
Grace never intended to become anyone’s bargain. Fleeing a life that offered her nothing but debt and a future she never chose, she boards a train west with only a small trunk and a smaller amount of hope. A marriage of convenience to a stranger seems like the safest risk she’s ever taken.
Neither expects what actually happens once the vows are spoken: a slow, steady, entirely unbargained-for love, built one honest conversation and one quiet act of trust at a time. But a marriage that began as a transaction has to survive being tested as something real — and Caleb and Grace will each have to decide whether the walls they built to survive are worth tearing down for the family they’re building instead.
The first book in The Ironhart Brothers of Cedar Hollow, a Christian Historical Western Romance series about four brothers, one demanding will, and the found family none of them saw coming.
