A Husband For Laura Kindle Edition

Laura Patton has no desire to get married. Her mother Millie wants grandchildren, and she wants them now. Since Laura is not interested in the one man from the area that her mother deems worthy of her daughter's hand, Millie sends off for a mail order husband who she believes would be a perfect fit.

Due to complications beyond his control on his way to meet Laura, Tucker Dobbs does not arrive at the scheduled time and leaves Laura and her parents waiting at the stage depot. Laura is relieved when Tucker doesn’t show, because now she doesn't have to tell him that she has no plans on marrying him. She also doesn't have to worry about him getting hurt by the hand of Buster Farrow, the man who has told her, in no uncertain terms, that he is the one she will be marrying.

No story is complete without a sidekick. A best friend. And that's where Julie Ohl comes into play. Friends since childhood, Julie and Laura are as close as sisters, and are willing to stand up for one another no matter what the cost.

This is a western romance featuring strong women characters and a male lead that is willing to do whatever it takes. There is plenty of action in this novel, and you won't want to miss one second of it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I really liked this book a lot!

The title for this book was a little misleading for me & had I been writing it I would have chosen something else. I thought it would probably be one of your typical western love stories but it was much more involved. All of the characters were well developed & the reader quickly becomes attached to most of them. It was disappointing when it ended because the story was so good I just wanted it to go on a bit longer. It was cleanly written with no descriptive sex or language which will was not necessary to present a good western reading experience. I highly recommend this one.

Interesting Mail Order love story. Cute, easy read! Laura isn't interested in getting married, but her mother wants grandchildren so she pretends to be Laura, and snags a nice guy for her. There is plenty of action in this story, you won't be disappointed.

This is one of those stories that makes you sad when it ends. At least I was. I was happy that everything worked out for the best. This story had so much compassion, ups and downs that I didn't know what was going to happen next. Thank God that there was several fights that kept things rolling till the end. Well written story.

I usually don't read westerns, but I totally found my interest caught with this gem. You cannot go wrong reading any story by Gerald Hartenhoff. The characters are believable and the storyline keeps the attention. Take a chance. I don't think you would regret it.
