Mail-Order Victoria by Caroline Clemmons

Genre Western historical romance

Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG

She has to protect her baby…

He is desperate for help…

Trouble preys on their livelihood…

Widow Victoria Bailey is desperate to prevent her in-laws from gaining custody of her eighteen-month-old daughter. If becoming a mail-order bride is her only option, she’ll take the risk. At least on a Texas ranch she’ll have quiet and peace. She doesn’t have time to let the groom know she’s bringing her daughter. Surely no man can object to one perfect little girl.

Widower Greg Hardy is desperate to get help with his home and his children. He needs to be pursuing whoever is rustling his cattle. A mail-order bride seems to be exactly what he needs but should he keep his children a secret? To insure he doesn’t scare off a prospective wife, he omits the fact that he has five children aged from eight months to nine years old.

Their marriage starts with misunderstanding. They decide to work together to fight against a common foe. Will the fight take a toll on their fragile happiness?

Why did you write this book?

I was fortunate enough to be invited to participate in this multi-author series, Widows, Brides and Secret Babies. (This is my first in the series—the second is Mail-Order Beatrice and will be released in May.) I love writing and reading mail-order bride romances. In this one Victoria worries whether or not her groom will accept her baby. A few minutes before they reach his ranch he confesses he has five children, including a baby, he hasn’t mentioned. She thought she’d be safe once she reached Texas only to learn he is trying to discover the identity of rustlers plaguing him. I hope readers will want to learn what comes next!

What is your favorite genre to read?

Although I read many genres, my favorite stories are western historical mail-order brides. I also love reading Regencies but have never attempted to write one.

Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?

Taylor Stapleton from Prince Charming by Julie Garwood. That book is a clever combination of English Victorian and American western historical.

What are you working on at the moment?

As I mentioned above, I’m writing Mail-Order Beatrice. It’s a bit edgier than the one releasing today in that the heroine’s baby is the result of an attack. It’s still a sweet story, though. I love the hero and his grandfather in this book.

What books will we see from you in coming months?

Mail-Order Beatrice will be released on May 8; An Agent For Judith in the Pinkerton Matchmaker series will be out June 19; followed by an energetic release schedule for 2020. Writing is a job I love but I might have overextended myself with this year’s schedule.

Through a crazy twist of fate, Caroline Clemmons was not born on a Texas ranch. To compensate for this illogical error, she writes about handsome cowboys, feisty ranch women, and scheming villains in a tiny office her family calls her pink cave. She and her Hero live in North Central Texas cowboy country where they ride herd on their dog and three rescued indoor cats as well as providing nourishment outdoors for squirrels, birds, and other critters.

The over fifty titles she has created in her pink cave have made her an Amazon bestselling author and won several awards. She writes sweet to sensual romances about the West, both historical and contemporary as well as time travel and mystery. Her series include the Kincaids, McClintocks, Stone Mountain Texas, Bride Brigade, Texas Time Travel, Texas Caprock Tales, Loving A Rancher, and Pearson Grove as well as numerous single titles and contributions to multi-author sets. When she’s not writing, she loves spending time with her family, reading her friends’ books, lunching with friends, browsing antique malls, checking Facebook, and taking the occasional nap.
