Book excerpt: A Suitor for the Spurned Mail Order Bride Anna Dawson thought she had the perfect man. She had the perfect life planned out with her perfect man. She was marrying the town’s most eligible bachelor. Until she wasn’t. Suddenly, on her wedding day, she’s spurned. What’s a girl to do but run away, her head tucked low in shame? Daniel West’s got a problem. His uncle’s will states that in order to inherit his own parents’ property, Daniel’s got to have a wife before his next birthday. Before his next birthday? There doesn’t seem to be time to find and woo a wife. Until his sisters concoct a plan involving placing an advertisement for a mail order bride. Seemed like a great idea at the time, but it seems Mother Nature has other plans. No sooner had Daniel collected his mail order bride than an earthquake struck and destroyed the town, sending the two into a head-spinning day of search and rescue. Among all the ravages inflicted on the town, can Daniel and Anna find what they are seeking and rescue their attempts to find love? A Secret Admirer for the Mail Order Bride Tom McAllister has been betrothed to Martha Smith for all of his adult life. Their fathers arranged this and though during their younger ages Tom and Martha might have felt a spark, that’s long past. Now Tom’s stuck. He’s promised to Martha and yet his heart seems to beat faster when Amelia West strolls by. Amelia West is an honorable woman. She’s always done what’s right. She’d never fall for a man who belongs to another. Tell that to her heart. She’s found herself attracted to Tom McAllister though he’s betrothed to another. What’s a woman to do? Well, her sister-in-law Anna has a solution. Respond to a mail order bride ad. Little does Amelia know, Anna’s been doing some plotting of her own. The Outlaw Finds A Bride Landon Smith’s got a problem. He’s accused of murdering his dead wife. This has turned him into an outlaw, one running from justice. Only it’s not real justice. It’s the machinations of a few crooked individuals. Landon needs help. The kind of help that only the West family can provide. He’s heard of the Wests. Who in that part of the country hadn’t? So he seeks out their help under duplicitous means. Lucky for Landon, Rose West has taken a liking to him. And the feeling is reciprocated. But will she reject him after learning the truth? Will her brother Daniel West kick him out, or worse, turn him in to the law? The Royal Takes A Bride Emma’s found herself attracted to a newcomer in town. Definitely not the type she’d ever expected to be interested in. This is no rough and tumble cowhand. No sir. This is a duke’s son. One who was bred aboard, and yet has spent enough time at boarding schools in the new country to rid himself of most of the accent. Will this royal come to his senses and realize the western bloom practically in his backyard?

His books embody heroic virtues that seem to matter now more than ever.”—The Wall Street Journal Edge-of-your-seat thrillers from the greatest Western author ever. There will never be another Western writer like Louis L’Amour. A legendary author and indisputably the greatest storyteller in his genre of all time, L’Amour captivated millions of readers and has sold well over three hundred million copies of his works, which includes nearly ninety novels and countless short stories. Mistakes Can Kill You highlights an essential selection featuring nine of L’Amour’s earlier short stories, sometimes written under the pen name Jim Mayo, that exemplify the rugged morality of the best Western writing. In “Black Rock Coffin-Makers,” two men ready to kill over ownership of a ranch get more than they bargain for when a stranger is caught in the crossfire. And in “Four- Card Draw,” Allen Ring wins a ranch in a poker game, only to find out an unsolved murder was committed there years ago and law enforcement thinks Ring knows more about it than he’s letting on. L’Amour made his characters come alive on the page, and his ability to capture the spirit and authenticity of the Wild West is unrivaled.
