Elizabeth McKinnie will no longer accept men ruling her life. After the Civil War devastated her family home and having no way to survive, Elizabeth accepts one of the mail-order bride proposals presented to her and her sisters. She chooses a man who promises to treat her as an equal. Her sister convinces her to switch suitors, proclaiming the weather in Texas would be more suitable for Elizabeth’s weak lungs. Agreeing, she heads west to meet the mysterious cattle baron she knows little about.
Jeb Clayton grew up as a poor son of a drunkard. He has worked his entire life to ensure he never starves again. He is a man who understands cows better than women, especially after watching the fairer sex manipulate his father into an early grave. Still, he begrudgingly agrees to marry a sturdy bride to produce sons who can help build his ranch into an empire. Yet, what he sees getting off the stagecoach is a whisper-of-a-woman with undesirable birthing hips.
When Elizabeth’s and Jeb’s futures are threatened will they join forces, or will their bitterness be their end?

After the Civil War there was so much destruction left behind. Lost loved ones. Homes destroyed. In the 1800's women had no rights. If the men in their lives died, they were on their own.
Elizabeth and her six sisters had a chance to become mail order brides that would spread them over the states to begin a new life.
Elizabeth is a strong and fiesty young woman who would not allow any man to control her life. She stood on firm ground determined to work as hard if not harder than any man.
Jeb was influenced by his alcoholic, womanizer father that women were nothing but liars and manipulative. Jeb wanted his wife to be a cook and have sons.
Love on the Ranch is a beautifully written historical romance with a slow burn. Loved the adventures on the trail ride. Flawless characters. Perfect story.
This story hit close to home. Born in Sherman. Raised in Texas.
I look forward to reading more of this talented author's work.
