What she desperately needs is a rugged backwoodsman who can get her family safely to California, two thousand miles away. Someone who could wrestle a bear and not break a sweat. Someone just like Matt Slater...\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTravel worn and trail weary, Matt Slater wants a clean bed and some R \u0026amp; R--not a woman with fancy airs and a brood of high-spirited children. He can tell Georgiana is trouble, but doesn't realize how much until he's bamboozled into pretending to be her fiancé. And when Georgiana hitches her wagons to his train, Matt finds himself facing something much more daunting than the journey before them: a woman with the spirit and the courage to tame his wild ways...\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nReview\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPraise for Bound for Eden and Tess LeSue\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Western aficionados will welcome a refreshing new voice in the sub-genre.\"--RT Book Review\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"I look forward to the next book by Tess LeSue.\"--The Reading Cafe\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"I adored Tess LeSue's \u003cbr\u003e\nBound for Eden! Her voice is brilliant, funny, and immediately draws you into the book. She does a fantastic job of painting the Old West and the Oregon Trail, and I was immediately reminded of curling up under the blankets with a wonderful, ‘old school' historical romance. The hero is sexy and protective, the heroine is fierce and independent, and I couldn't stop turning pages.\" –Jessica Clare, \u003cbr\u003e\nNew York Times bestselling author\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"I was blown away by the sparkling brilliance of [Tess's] writing.

LeSue's characters leap off the page with heart and menace. An accomplished mix of comedy and suspense, I found myself cheering with the heroine as she boldly navigates the journey to Oregon and eventually, her freedom.

The lady seeks passage west to land owned in Mokelumne Hill, California. The advertiser presumes her manner and appearance will recommend her and expects applications from responsible parties only. Interviews are scheduled for the 6th of next month, beginning at nine o’clock in the morning, in the front parlor of the Grand Hotel. Please be prompt.\u003cbr\u003e\nIndependence, Missouri, 1849\u003cbr\u003e\nNow that was how a man should look. Suffocating in the stuffy hotel parlor, Georgiana Bee Blunt looked longingly out of the window, where she could see a backwoodsman tethering his animal to the hitching rail outside Cavil’s Mercantile. The fellow was a brute. He had a wild head of bristling black hair and a stiff beard, and his arms were the size of smokehouse hams. And if that wasn’t enough to make him look like a character from one of her dime novels, he was also clad head to toe in buckskin. And the size of him! My, but he looked like he could rip an oak from the earth bare-handed. That was exactly the kind of man she needed, and exactly the kind of man she had advertised for.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt wa\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780451492593\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.7 x 4.1 x 1.2 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berkley Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50209673871664,"sku":"Trans_9780451492593","price":525.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/81V_xJDLaxL.jpg?v=1760168719","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/bound-for-sin","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
