Three couples. Three impossible odds. One unforgettable frontier. The Bitter Springs Western Romance Trilogy from Jo Goodman.Set against the beauty and danger of the American West, these frontier romances blend historical romance with suspense, and richly drawn characters—featuring rugged heroes, strong heroines, marriages of convenience, and the kind of redemption romance that readers of Diana Palmer, Lorraine Heath, and Kaki Warner won’t be able to put down. From a gunslinger walking into a Wyoming frontier town in 1888, to a private detective tracking a schoolteacher through small-town life in 1889, to a mail-order bride and a rancher finding unexpected love on the range in 1891, each book stands alone while building a richly satisfying portrait of Bitter Springs and its unforgettable community.Book 1: The Last Renegade (Bitter Springs, Wyoming — 1888)Kellen Coltrane rides into Bitter Springs carrying a dead man’s Colts and a debt of honor. The widow who owns the Pennyroyal Hotel hires a legendary gunfighter to protect her town—but the man who arrives tells her he’s gone. With jurors turning up dead, the marshal murdered, and a corrupt lawman in place, Kellen reluctantly steps into the role no one asked him to fill. Raine Berry doesn’t trust him. But as threats close in and a marriage of convenience becomes their only shield, neither can deny what’s growing between them. Book 2: True to the Law (Bitter Springs, Wyoming — 1889)Private detective Cobb Bridger arrives in Bitter Springs with one job: locate Tru Morrow and hold her for a wealthy family who claims she stole something irreplaceable. He finds her—a quiet schoolteacher building a new life—and immediately doubts she’s guilty of anything. As Cobb’s mission shifts from surveillance to protection, the truth about the Mackeys’ true motives proves darker than anyone expected, and the danger that follows puts everything at risk. Book 3: In Want of a Wife (Bitter Springs, Wyoming — 1891)Jane Middlebourne leaves a difficult life in New York to become a mail-order bride to rancher Morgan Longstreet. Their cautious start deepens into something unexpected as Jane wins over the ranch and quietly earns her way into Morgan’s guarded heart. But when his criminal brothers return to force him into a bank robbery—and use Jane as leverage—the fragile love they’ve built faces its greatest test.
