He requests a mail order bride, and when his bride-to-be steps off the train, he can't believe his luck. She's beautiful and smart.... And full of secrets. Lily Dreyfus has done her best to escape the grasp of her brother. After years of helping him con others, she tried to find her own independence and forget the sins of her past. But when her benefactor dies, she's still six months away from gaining control of her trust fund. And her brother comes knocking. He's hatched a plan to make it so that they both never have to worry about money again. All she has to do is marry a man known for killing his previous wives for their money. Her brother would take care of the rest. But soon it becomes clear that Peter isn't the dangerous man Cory told her he was. As she falls in love with him, she knows she'll have to face off against her brother to save her new husband's life. When the dust settles, who will still be standing? Will Peter still love her when he discovers just what she's capable of? Emma Ashwood writes clean Mail Order Bride books. The Brides of Wild Water Creek are a new Mail Order Bride short story series.
