Her family grows increasingly worried about the depressive state she falls into and they try to come up with ways to help her, but nothing seems to work.

Seth Samuels, Tessa's brother-in-law, becomes injured when he and his men are attacked by wild dogs on a cattle drive. He's morose and anxious over the prospect of not being able to participate in drives any longer. Tessa sees two people she loves hurting and thinks that maybe they can help each other when no one else can. She appeals to Seth to help convince Madelyn to come west.

During the time she spends in Montana, she and Marcus develop an antagonistic relationship, which Claire purposely fosters to hide her crush on him.

Claire has graduated from college and now turns her focus on making a life of her own. Marcus is part of that plan, but he doesn't know that. When Maddie and Seth return to Montana after attending her graduation, Claire goes with them to put her plan into action. Marcus' life is turned upside down by an unforeseen event that threatens to tear his family apart forever.

The original Big Sky Brides, all in one place! Adventure and romance together in high-speed pursuit of Happily Ever Afters throughout the universe. If you’ve been looking for love in all the wrong galaxies, find your alien mate with the Intergalactic Dating Agency! ALPHA STAR She just wanted a quiet place to hide from the world. Instead, she found adventure with a sexy alien seeking his mate and a once-in-a-lifetime chance for a cosmic love… Recovering from a traumatic concussion, Zoe Nazario fears she’ll never trust her own senses again. So when she stumbles over a shiny chrome cube, she laughs off its chirpy announcement that she’s the lucky bride of an alien prince. Aliens? Love? Yeah, no. Better to be dazed and confused—and alone—than desperately delusional. Sinclarion “Sin” Fifth-Moon Jax feels most at home roaming the infinite stars with his cybernetic enhancements and princely privilege to protect his misfit spaceship crew. But his imperial great-grandmother, despairing of his free-flying ways, demands he settle down to claim his solar system inheritance—and the Big Sky Intergalactic Dating Agency has already identified his perfect match in Sunset Falls, Montana, Earth! Grudgingly resigned to seizing the woman of his destiny, Sin instead gets an innocent Earther girl—who rejects him utterly. But when he realizes an interstellar menace is stalking his reluctant bride, he can’t just leave her behind…even if his five mating rings threaten to lock with desire when she’s near. The small-town Earther girl and the arrogant alien prince must join forces to survive a vast and treacherous universe, but what happens when they find that Sin’s inheritance might be a lie—and so is his perfect match with Zoe? RED SHIFT Unmated drakling shifters are one of the hottest threats in the universe, as everyone knows…everyone except this one drakling with amnesia and the innocent Earther girl trapped with him! Banished from his homeworld for refusing a mate that would tame his fiery beast, Honey the drakling followed his wandering prince into battle and then—more terrifying yet—into courtship. But then espresso-induced amnesia leaves him marooned in the backwater wilds of Big Sky Country, Montana, Earth, lost and alone but for a female with hair as dark as the night skies and hidden sparks in her eyes. Tisha Beauchamp just wanted a weekend in her granny’s remote cabin with her girlfriends to figure out her life plan. No one said a thing about an early snowstorm or invading aliens! And now she’s stuck in the mountains by herself—until her one-woman pity party gets crashed by a wild, red-haired man with no memories, strange dragon-ish tattoos, and a scorching touch… Though he has forgotten his name, his beast, and the freedom of space, the feverish urge to claim Tisha grows stronger with every night under the pale light of Earth’s solitary moon. But if he finds his way back to his ship and himself, how can he burn forever with his bold, bright Earther girl? DARK MATTER While it is a verifiable reality that the universe is vast and strange, no one in all those lightyears could ever love an emotionless, soul-sucking space vampire. Unless there are deeper truths out there somewhere… The secretive, ancient species of the vrykoly were designed to pilot the deathly cold distances of space, and Ivan has never known anything else; even his dreams have always been black and empty. Though he guides the Sinner’s Prayer to a neglected little planet to find brides from the Intergalactic Dating Agency, Ivan dispassionately considers bonding and mating to be irrational pursuits. But when his captain and first officer find incandescent love with the extraordinary females of Earth, this vrykoly is forced to wonder if he was—dare he say it?—wrong. After the tragic death of her first love, Montana river guide Delaney Nazario thought she’d be alone forevermore. So she quietly signed up with the Big Sky matchmaking outpost in Sunset Falls, hoping an alien will whisk her away. Instead it was her two roommates who found their mates—also staving off an attack by interstellar mercenaries trying to kidnap Earth women. Now Del is being guarded by a silent, hulking, scary vrykoly—who might be the only being in the universe she could never, ever date. But while there are deeper truths in the universe, there is also secret menace. And Big Sky’s only hope is a space vampire who’s never felt anything and an Earther girl who feels too much. AFTER BURN When Vaughn Quaye’s older sister goes missing in Big Sky Country, she’s willing to risk everything to hunt down the only man who seems to know anything about the mysterious mail order bride agency that closed under suspicious circumstances. Except Vaughn is risking more than her life–she’s discovering a universe of danger and desire she never knew existed. Dejo Jinn, sole proprietor of Jinn Data Recovery, just wants to steal–no, sorry, not steal, recover–the data left behind at the abandoned Intergalactic Dating Agency when it was forced to close after mistakenly losing some brides. He has no interest in revealing his extraterrestrialness to a clueless if distractingly curvy Earther, but after they are attacked and she sees his green blood, his secret is outed. Now reluctant partners, he’ll have the chance to steal–sorry, recover–the valuable data and she’ll get her sister back. Assuming they don’t end up dead. Or worse yet, end up dating. __________ For readers who love: alien mail order bride science fiction romance intergalactic dating agency fated mates prince royalty mercenary starship captain dragon shifter shapeshifter ginger cinnamon roll space vampire alpha male warrior strong woman heroine action adventure fast read fun steamy happily ever after HEA first love and books by Ruby Dixon, Honey Phillips, Tana Stone, Anna Hackett, Celia Kyle, Zoey Draven, Suzanne Wright, Celeste King, and Ava Ross.
