From The Publisher:
Loreli Winters never imagined she'd end up a "mail-order bride" in middle-of-nowhere Kansas -- until the two adorable orphan nieces of a dusky dream named Jake Reed beg her to be their new "mama." And one look at the dark, devastatingly handsome man is enough to entice her to abandon her California plans and stay put for a while in this one-horse frontier town.
Strong, sensible Jake was hoping for a wife to help him raise his girls, but Loreli may be more than he can handle. He can't stop wondering what it would be like to hold the fiery enchantress close and kiss her deeply.
Surely he could never compete with the sophisticated gents she has known, yet he intends to try. But will his honest passion be enough to take a chance on a long-shot called love?

While I enjoyed most of the story the last part wasn't a favorite of mine. But still it was a good one.. I loved the family dynamics the most and how attached the heroine got to the heros niece's and how attached they got to her. The drama got exciting and was hard to stop listening to but the last bit went down a bit. Although by the end I didn't dislike it either
