Trail of Promises - Susan F Craft - Bog

A marriage of convenience will protect her reputation on the long trail ahead, but he's barely more than a stranger...
Tessa Harris is a woman without options. When she's stranded nearly two hundred miles from her destination, her only companions are a former British Cavalry officer and his two young brothers. Society dictates they cannot travel without a chaperone, but can she trust this handsome stranger to protect her if they choose to marry? And if so, should she show her feelings or guard her heart? She's learned the hard way how painful it is to love a man who doesn't reciprocate.
Stephen Griffith has enough responsibility caring for his young brothers, and now he shoulders the massive responsibility of keeping his new wife safe as they cross the wilderness toward a new life. And though he tries to keep her at arm's length, reminding himself their marriage may only be a temporary arrangement, he cannot seem to shake the feelings growing for her.
When they fall into the hands of outlaws, Tessa and Stephen must overcome their hardest obstacle yet. Only God can bring them safely to the end of the trail where enduring love awaits.
