Miss Buttercup Price
In the dusty Arizona town of Benson in 1871, Sheriff Valentine Grant, nephew to Ulysses Grant, is counting the days until he can leave his badge behind and return to his quiet life back East. Disgusted by the local practice of ordering mail-order brides from crowded cities to wed lonely frontiersmen, Valentine wants no part of the town's backward ways. But when the coach carrying the spirited young Buttercup Price is ambushed by bandits, his plans for a quick exit are thrown into chaos. Buttercup, traveling West to reunite with her aunt, is mistaken for one of the mail-order brides after the stage coach robbery leaves her stranded in Benson. With no money, no belongings, and a fiery determination to clear up the misunderstanding, she's forced to rely on the gruff, reluctant sheriff for protection. Sheriff Grant, duty-bound to keep her safe until the new sheriff arrives, finds himself drawn to young woman's sharp wit and unyielding courage-qualities that challenge his resolve to stay unattached. As the two navigate the dangers of a lawless town and the mystery of the stage coach hijacking, sparks ignite between the cynical sheriff and the misplaced city girl. With Val's departure looming and Bea's future uncertain, they must confront their growing feelings and decide if love is worth risking everything, they thought they wanted. A heartwarming and action-packed Western romance, Miss Buttercup Price explores the unexpected ways fate can rewrite even the best-laid plans.
