Bobby's Bride

Bobby Burleson enjoyed the bachelor life and all the perks of being a member of one of the founding families of his small hometown, especially working as the police chief of the Heart's Destiny Police Department. Between his duty to the town and the extra work he did for his family business, Bobby didn't have time for his matchmaking mother's mischief, much less the relationship she wanted him to find.

Brooklyn Brielle Barns was a mostly na¯ve heiress who lived a sheltered life, unaware of her inheritance from her mother. After earning her online degree in English, she was excited to start her career as an author of children's books. Before she could tell her father her plan for the future, he announced that he'd set up an arranged marriage for her. Until the unknown heiress became a runaway bride, hoping to stay hidden away from her oppressive father's evil plans by using her pen name as an alias.

When Bobby saw the kidnapped heiress headlines, he felt compelled to investigate. Not because of his duty as a police officer, since a kidnapping in Georgia was outside his jurisdiction, but because of the strange feeling in his chest when he saw Brooklyn Barns' photos. His inner alpha wanted to rescue the damsel in distress.

When Brooklyn's car broke down in a small Texas town, "Brie" accepted a job as a live-in cook and housekeeper to supplement her income. It was instalove when she met her new boss, but she couldn't tell him who she really was without risking him sending her back to her unwanted old life.

When Bobby met Brie, he felt as drawn to her as he did to the images of the Georgia heiress that he no longer believed was kidnapped. As he got to know Brie, he started to see the similarities between her and Brooklyn.

Would he figure out that the two women he was drawn to were one and the same? Would the small-town hero be able to protect his lady in hiding? Could this unlikely couple find their happily ever after?
