Description
In life and love, things rarely go as expected.
Elijah Rogers is content with his life as the trusted sheriff to the township of Green River.
Although he is mostly content with his life as a bachelor, it takes seeing his close friend find happiness in marriage for Elijah to finally consider that there might be more to life than his work and faithful collie, Bonny.
And so he follows in his friend’s footsteps and places his own advertisement for a mail-order bride.
All Lisette Rosemond wanted was to win a silly bet.
It seemed harmless enough. Simply respond to the listing for a mail-order bride—what trouble could come from that?
But when Lisette receives a letter in return, she decides to go against her sister’s wishes and finds herself on a train to Green River—just to prove her wrong!
The last thing Lisette could have expected was that danger would find her even before she could step foot in the town.
Lost, alone, and under the watchful eye of a terrible threat, Lisette finally begins to realize that her actions might not have been so harmless after all….
And that her would-be husband might just be her only hope at escaping danger.
But has her realization come too late?
Mail Order Abduction is a heartwarming adventure of growth and true love. Will Elijah make it to Lisette in time? Or is this one game that might just turn deadly?

This is the first book in this series. Elijah is the sheriff in green River and sends off for a bride. Lisette is a nice and sweet girl that cares more about love than money. Lisette and her sister’s father lost their wealth and her sister wants Lisette to marry for money but she doesn’t want to and runs off to Green River to marry the sheriff. Along the way she gets kidnapped. Elijah has to save the day. I like books about sheriffs and Marshalls and I like Elijah but I don’t like his methods of doing his job. He’s not the type of sheriff that just shoots them and that’s it. He gives them too many breaks. This is a good start to this series. Gina Dobbs does a great job narrating this book. I received a copy of this book from audiobooks unleashed.

I loved the storyline of this book. There were twists and turns that kept the story fresh and interesting. The characters are well thought out and I look forward to seeing more of them in future books. This is a great beginning to the Green River series.
