Publisher's Description

Rachel Matthews isn't one to rely on others to take care of her. Destitute and alone, she still wants to make her own way and her own money--even if she's forced into the life of a dance hall girl. Horrified by her circumstances, Rachel's brother sends a friend--the widely admired cattle baron John McIntyre--to rescue her, then sets off to earn enough money to buy back the family ranch. But when months pass without her brother's return, Rachel isn't sure she can take one more day in John McIntyre's home--especially once she discovers that he's the one who holds the deed to her family's ranch. Sparks fly between this spunky, independent heroine and the ruggedly handsome hero as they navigate the snarled terrain of pride, greed, faith, and love in Maggie Brendan's delightful series set in the Old West.

“My favorite Maggie Brendan book to date! Fun and fast-paced, A Sweet Misfortune will hold you captive with its colorful Western setting and cast of memorable characters. Rachel is no ordinary heroine—and John is much more than a handsome hero! Woven within this heartfelt story is a beautiful thread of faith and love that is timeless, sure to win readers of all ages. Well done!”
