September’s Switch – New Release from Mimi Milan
September’s Switch by Mimi Milan
The fact that they can both use “Ana” as a nickname is about the only similarity between twin sisters, Analis and Ariana Torres. Well, that and the obvious… they look exactly alike. Perhaps that’s why Analis believes she can step in and marry a complete stranger when the proposed bride — her “forever irresponsible” sister — runs off. After all, it’s not like Analis has much to live for in her corner of the Bronx barrio anyway. An out-of-work actress struggling to make ends meet, she figures there are worse things in life than being married to a well-to-do rancher. So, she signs the contract and is married by proxy. Then she hops the first train to Belle, Wyoming.
Analis arrives in the bustling small town, eager to play the part of wife… but is she ready to assume the role of mother, too?

Eleanor’s Dilemma – New Release from Cheryl Wright
Eleanor’s Dilemma by Cheryl Wright
When Eleanor Carter witnesses her husband’s murder, and can identify the culprits, she’s taken into protective custody.
Living in sin with her protector for an unknown period of time doesn’t sit right with her, so she takes the only option available to her – she marries him. She insists it’s a marriage of convenience only, and they agree to annul the marriage when it’s all over.
Glen Sanders has been protector for a number of women, but none quite like this one. Everything must be done by the book, and when he embraces her to keep up the pretense of their marriage, she flinches. At least at first.
His suggestion they marry to pull off the pretense is not only for her protection. He is certainly not adverse to having this high society lady as his wife for the rest of their days.
Can these two make their forced exile work? And will their close proximity force them to face their feelings for each other?

Lupe’s Luck – New Release from R Castro
Lupe Cortez lived in California her whole life, and despite the changes brought by the Mexican American War of 1846 – 1848, she’d been happy, comfortable, and confident in her small community and position in life.
Then her family moved to Belle, Wyoming, guided by Elias Anthony Hill. He was strong, intelligent, utterly charming, and her father’s boss. Elias was the head blacksmith; because he’d inherited the family business from his departed dad.
Elias’ higher status in life would’ve been her first warning, because men like him, didn’t usually travel with the crew and they never gave a second thought to girls like Lupe. And mostly, wealthier men didn’t make time to know her kind, a Mexican American, which would’ve made more sense. Yet, there was something different about Elias, and she couldn’t be sure what? Still, Elias wasn’t like those other men. He made time to get to know her and really listen, despite their different status in life.
After they arrived in Belle, Lupe found herself the victim of a freak accident in the stables. Not even she could have imagined how different things would be when she woke up.
