Download Last Chance Mail Order Bride: Violet's Cowboy: Westward Wanted, Book 4 AudioBook Free
It was not Violet Gladstone's idea to become mail order bride. She experienced it was foolhardy for a woman to leave everything behind to marry a man she got never achieved. However, when her greedy partner, Ned, jilted her for a wealthy woman, her friend persuaded her to answer an advertising. Soon, she was exchanging words with a good widower who wished to wed her. For a few months, they wrote to each other. All his words were captivating, except the last one. It included an ultimatum: marry him now or never. He could hold out no longer. She wrote back that she would come immediately, but she didn't. Instead, when enough time came, she switched in her ticket to Tx and submitted an apologetic letter to the widower breaking off their engagement. When Ned noticed Violet stayed, he accused her of possessing a torch for him and wanted to make her his mistress. Violet scoffed at his lewd offer and his vile conceit. Super fast, he was in her face, directing out a strong-willed 27-year-old servant was too old, too poor, and too disagreeable to find a hubby in man-starved postwar Georgia. He expected she would live out her life, a spinster dwelling in the servants' quarters while she pined away for what might have been. That was all it had taken for her to pen another letter asking the widower to forgive her fickleness, and informing him she was on her way. There was no way Ned was going to wreck her dreams. She still left on the very next stagecoach destined for Tx. Her fury retained her doubts and fears at bay for quite a while, but when the road got abrasive as they traveled farther and farther into the frontier, she regretted leaving Atlanta. When she really considered it, being a spinster appeared like a nice carefree lifestyle and the servants' quarters a safe haven. Her rationalization was for naught; it was too overdue to turn back. Certain she got still left the frying skillet for the flames, she stared out the windowpane of the stagecoach as it rattled down the bumpy dirt and grime road going to her uncertain future.
