An Unexpected Groom for Christmas
(2024)(A book in the Hearts Across the Frontier series)
A novel by Elaine Shields
Nurse Tara Culden sets off through a snowstorm on what she expects to be a routine day of visiting patients, but fate has other plans. When she stumbles upon an injured stranger, her nurturing instincts compel her to help him, but the timing couldn't be worse—with her mail-order groom set to arrive any day. But when he finally shows up, he is not entirely what Tara was expecting.
Could this twist of fate lead to a choice she never anticipated?
John Smith wakes up in a world where everything about him has vanished—his name, his past, and any connection to who he once was. As he tries to unravel the mystery of who he was, only one thing feels certain; the woman who saved him. Tara's care pulls him closer, but as his feelings deepen, so do his fears…
What if the secrets buried in his forgotten life shatter the fragile bond they're building…
As Tara and John struggle with their growing feelings towards one another, the threat of John's memory returning looms large. If he remembers his past, will it be something that pulls them closer—or tears them apart forever? With Christmas fast approaching, can there be a future for either of them or will the possibilities of the past keep them apart?
