Rachel Duncan might be the stubbornest, most independent woman he'd ever met. Her dark honey-colored hair and blue-eyed gaze might’ve been pleasing if not for the irritation he felt every time she opened her mouth to speak. She bothered him like a burr under his saddle. Made his skin itch like it was crawling with ants. And Owen had promised to marry her. That's why he needed Hollis Tremblay, the wagon master of their company. To perform the ceremony. "I'm marrying Rachel." Leo snorted, but then grew serious when he realized Owen wasn't joking. "You can't marry her. You hate each other." "I don't hate her." He couldn’t say she felt the same. Not for certain. At their first meeting, she had been pointing a gun—empty at the time, but he hadn't known that—at Owen’s younger brother, August. So Owen had tackled her to the ground. She’d been terrified, hiding from the men who had massacred her wagon train, and it had been dark. He hadn't realized until everything was over that she was a she, and that she was pregnant. Even if she had forgiven him for that, there was other bad blood between them. "Maybe you don't hate her, but you sure don't like her." Leo was right. Owen and Rachel couldn't seem to help arguing at every turn. He sighed and stopped, turning to face his brother. "It's my fault her bhrother got himself killed." It was the first time he'd said the words out loud. But not the first time he'd thought them. Leo’s voice shook him out of that terrible memory. “Guilt isn’t something to build a marriage on.” Leo was as serious as Owen had ever seen him. His voice held an edge Owen hadn’t heard in weeks. But at Leo’s words, Owen felt his shoulders relax. “It’s only until we reach Oregon,” he told his brother. “Then we’ll have it annulled.” Leo scowled. “What?” Owen was honestly confused at his brother’s response. “You’d marry her and walk away?” Now Leo sounded offended. And as far as Owen was concerned, this wasn’t his business. “This isn’t a love match.” Owen bristled at Leo’s commanding tone. “It’s an agreement between the two of us.” ❤️❤️❤️ 💔 She lost everything on the westward trail—now she’s carrying new life and stuck in a marriage of convenience with a man she can’t stand. 🤠👶 When prickly Rachel and stoic Owen are forced into partnership, sparks fly and hearts mend on the long road to Oregon. 🥾🌄 Expect rivals-to-lovers banter, opposites-attract tension, a steadfast protector hero, and emotional scars only love (and a little faith) can heal. ✝️ 📖 Read WILD HEART'S HAVEN from a USA Today bestselling author for only $4.99 or in Kindle Unlimited now!
