Here Comes the Bride
by Laura Drewry
Tess Kinley wants to leave her society life behind to go live out west, and if it means running away from an arranged marriage and imposing herself on the unsuspecting Calloways, then that’s what she’ll do.
Experience has taught Gabe Calloway that city girls have no business living out west, and he has no intention of letting this one get too comfortable on his ranch. If he has any say in the matter, he’ll see her on the next stage out of town.
Luckily for Tess, that gives her some time to prove her worth to Gabe, in more ways than one. Despite her willingness to dive in and do any task he sets before her, he isn’t convinced she should stay, but as time goes by, Tess begins to get under his skin, something he must fight with every breath. When his heart softens, an encounter with a rattle snake reminds him once again why city girls don’t belong on his ranch.
He orders her off his land, but Tess is determined to see her plan through and simply finds alternate arrangements. Gabe is more confused than ever, torn between shutting Tess out of his heart and life forever or letting himself love her, knowing at some point she’ll either succumb to the hardships as his mother did, or she’ll realize she belongs back in the city, as Catarina did.
By the time Gabe realizes how much he loves Tess, it might be too late, but he’s hell-bent to make her his wife no matter what. Once the bullets start flying, the final decision is out of his hands and he can only hope Tess survives.

Laura Drewry's Bio
The first book Laura ever owned was On the Banks of Plum Creek, which still sits up on the top shelf with the rest of the Little House series. She blames her mother for her book addiction because it was her mother who always had a couple books on the go at the same time, and who used to read and watch The Edge of Night at the same time.
Laura had been scribbling things for years before she decided to seriously sit down and write. It helped that she and her husband had just moved 700 km away from their families, it was the dead of winter and she was about 49 months pregnant with their second child, all of which gave her the excuse she needed to hunker down and get at it.
Her books have been described as “delightful,” “clever,” and “smart, sassy and refreshingly different.”
After spending eight years in the Canadian north, Laura now lives back home in southwestern British Columbia with her husband, three sons, a turtle named Sheldon and an extremely energetic German Shepherd. She loves old tattered books, good movies, country music and the Yankees.
