Title: ONE LAST CHANCE
Series: Last Chance Brides #1
Description from the publisher:
When Charlotte answers an advertisement for a mail-order bride, the last thing she expects is that the man who placed it is Logan, her former fiancé who had jilted her long ago.
He's come to New Orleans on behalf of the men of Last Chance, a booming town in the Washington Territory, but he doesn't intend to leave without the woman he's never been able to forget.
Charlotte decides to board the ship headed for Last Chance, determined to make a new life for herself, far away from the war-ravaged South, but she has no intention of falling for Logan once again. Can Logan change her mind during the long voyage north, or will she marry someone else once they arrive?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ONE LAST CHANCE is the first book in the Last Chance Brides series. Though each book will follow one couple, it is best if you read this series in the order of release, especially this first book since it establishes the town and the scenario.
One of my favorite tropes – a second chance at love – set in the reconstruction after the Civil War.
Josh and Logan have advertised for twenty-two women to be mail-order brides for their new town in the Washington Territory. Logan doesn’t want one of the twenty-two, he has chosen New Orleans for their advertising and interviewing so that he can pursue bride number twenty-three, his former fiancé.
I loved this story. There is the perfect blend of righteous anger on the behalf of Charlotte, groveling from Logan, and swoon-worthy and sigh-inducing proof that he is sincere. I love his persistence, but also his chivalry.
This is the first book that I have read from Diana Bold, but I am looking forward to reading more. Based on this book, I love her style.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
