The Bride Least Wanted (Brides of Liberty Series Book 3)

The third book in the Brides of Liberty series...
Amid the New Year, scandal has rocked the small town of Liberty, Texas.

With one ill fated bank robbery, truths are about to come to light that will change lives forever.
Trudy Bixby should have died from the gun blast. Instead, the bullet that was meant for her, had lodged itself into the back of the rugged rancher that pushed her from it's path. To the shock of the gossips in town she moves herself in with the bachelor determined to care for the man. Though she knows everyone considers her a jezebel out to take advantage of a dying man, nothing could be farther from the truth. As Trudy refuses to leave Mathias' side she is determined to fight for her place by in his life. Even if it means battling the ornery cuss himself. Trudy owes Mathias more than just her life, she owes him the truth. And nothing was going to stop her from atoning her sins.

Mathias Sinclair never could have guessed that the bullet that had destroyed his back would not only rob him of his ability to walk, but saddle him with the banker's spoiled daughter. As he tries to run her off and push the stubborn woman away, he only finds himself drawn further into his desire of the little spitfire he foolishly makes his bride.
Mathias soon realizes that Trudy isn't all what she seems at first glance.
But will the plots of another destroy everything before it has a chance to even begin?
