The Snowbound Bride
Historical Holiday Romance
by Davalynn Spencer
Arabella Taube has two choices: fall prey to the strange man following her on the train or the snarling dog in a farm wagon that could spirit her away to safety.
First released as part of the 2015-2016 bestselling collection, The 12 Brides of Christmas.
Determined not to be the highest bidder’s bride, Arabella Taube flees her ruthless uncle’s plans and takes a train west to Colorado. Followed by the family henchman, she escapes the train and hides in the back of a farm wagon at the depot. A winter snowstorm sweeps in as Nate Horne returns to his wagon, determined to make it back to the ranch. On the way he discovers a stow-away, but rather than cast her out, he takes her home where the family is snowbound through Christmas. Despite Ara’s sudden appearance and mysterious background, Nate’s mother thinks Ara could be the answer to years of prayer and the hope for her lonely son’s future.
