Twice Promised Paperback - 2012

by Maggie Brendan


From the publisher

Seeing how successful her older sister's "mail order marriage" has been and longing to strike out on her own, Greta Olsen answers an ad for a mail order bride in Central City, Colorado. But when she meets Jess Gifford, owner of a thriving mercantile, she begins to harbor doubts. He didn't place the ad to begin with and his business in a busy mining town leaves him little time or energy for love. To compound her troubles, she was not the only bride to answer the ad! Will either bride strike the match she hopes for?

Filled with amusing and awkward situations that will keep the reader interested and guessing, Twice Promised is another sweet romance from Maggie Brendan.

From the rear cover

Two beautiful brides. One unsuspecting groom. Three weeks to figure it all out.

Greta Olsen arrives in Central City, Colorado, as a mail-order bride, expecting to marry Jess Gifford, the man she's come to know through his tender letters. But when she meets Cora Johnson, she discovers she's not the only bride waiting at the train station for Jess.

Already shocked to find they must compete for Jess's affection, the young women can hardly believe it when not Jess but his brother Zach picks them up from the station--and reveals that Jess knows nothing about any mail-order bride, let alone two. Will either bride make the match she hopes for?

Filled with surprises, misunderstandings, and tender romance, Twice Promised is the story of how two unlikely women become twice blessed.


"Twice Promised is another great love story by Maggie Brendan . . . with fast-paced plot twists as the characters find their way to true love."--Mary Connealy, author of Over the Edge, In Too Deep, and Out of Control

"Memorable characters and solid storytelling abound in Maggie Brendan's delightful tale. The two romances will double your reading pleasure, and the twists and turns will keep you guessing until the end. I loved it!"--Margaret Brownley, New York Times bestselling author of the Brides of Last Chance Ranch series
