Heart and Hand (Gold Sky, #1)

by Rebel Carter

Can a Mail Order bride find love with two husbands?

 It doesn’t take long for Julie Baptiste to realize she yearns for more than the non-stop engagements and niceties dictated by New York high society. So, she decides to do something bold and answers an advertisement for a mail-order bride in Gold Sky, Montana.  

Ex-Union soldiers Forrest Wickes and William Barnes have been inseparable since the War. They share everything, including the desire to find a wife. A woman who is willing to marry them both and provide the isolated town with a much needed teacher.

When Julie arrives in Montana the three of them must figure out how to navigate the boundaries of their new lives. Can Forrest and Will come together to provide what Julie needs and protect the heart of the woman who’s made her way intimately into theirs?

And how will a debutante-turned-teacher manage frontier life with two husbands?

Heart and Hand is a romantic and passionate MFM romance and Book 1 in the Gold Sky Series.

YES!
+Interracial, mail-order bride, polyamory (M/F/M) in 1886?! Um, yes please!
+Julie is a well-to-do lady and she is bored of it. She wants freedom and challenges, and answering Mr. Wickes ad for a bride can provide her with exactly that. Not to mention that she fell in love with him through letters.
+Gold Sky is a very accepting little town in the middle of nowhere.
+The triad has realistic internal issues, nothing forced. Like how Julie didn't tell her family her marriage was to two men. She didn't want them to keep her home. And how sex is going to work. Turns, schedule, simultaneous? Does Will actually want her, or does he just want what Forrest wants?
+Rosemary is bold and evil!

NO!
-Some annoying typos and grammatical weirdness.
-I wish there had been some backstory as to why Forrest and Will are together like this.
