Lorna Loves a Lawyer

A sweet historical romance set in 1873. Lorna Jantz left Boston looking for adventure, signing up as a mail-order bride for a rich Kansas rancher. But, the groom only becomes rich after taking off with her money, after their twenty-four hour marriage. Which left Lorna in a pickle, stuck in a little town with no money, no home and a growing belly. Lyle Elison was one of Boston's worst, a spoiled, rich merchant's son, until enforced time on the family's Kansas ranch made him see his purpose in life. After training in Boston, he's back in Clear Creek, Kansas, as the town's new lawyer. Backgrounds make Lorna and Lyle connect, but time spent together makes them good friends, willing to help each other face their respective problems. Lorna needs help tracking down the louse who stole her money and left her in a family way. Lyle needs to be married by his birthday to receive his inheritance from his grandfather's Will. In between their capers, each falls in love with the other, secretly wishing they could confess their love and be together forever. But first, they have to find Lorna's wayward husband before Lyle's birthday.
