The year is 1862, and the Fraser River Gold Rush is at its height. Miners dominate the little town of New Derby, and they are eagerly awaiting the arrival of bride ships from England. Scared, but hoping for a new life, three very different young women step, rather unsteadily, from from a rickety bride ship onto the rough shores of British Columbia. Elinor, the pampered adopted child of an elderly aristocrat, wants to escape her strict aunt and the stifling prospect of marriage, but her elegant manners are no preparation for the realities of frontier living. Clever Rosie, a prostitute since childhood, has chosen an uncertain future over prison and the workhouse. Janet has left the poverty of London, longing for a home, a husband, and a better life. The three of them have formed an unlikely friendship during the hellish voyage. That friendship will be severely tested as they face discrimination, abuse, unlikely success, the possibility of love...and the threat of deportation. Will they be strong enough to survive in this rough new land, a land of gold miners, riverboats-and men unused to dealing with women who stand alone and face them as equals? Together these three women take on struggles and difficulties they could never have dreamed of. Like other unsung heroines of gold rush times they must invent solutions to problems unique to a new society in a new country. Some of the solutions they create work well. Others leave them in a worse mess than before. Elinor is force to work for a living - and not as a governess as she had hoped. Rosie opens a brothel which is an immediate success in a town that is more than 90% male - until the police chief works out a plan to deport her. Janet - well Janet careens from one disaster to the next until she discovers a unique talent. Read 'Bride Ship Three' to get a taste of real pioneer life during a gold rush, to share the emotions of three very different but very determined young women and to enjoy a good rad.

The Bride Series 3-Book Bundle by Jane Feather Pdf

In this enchanting trilogy from “an accomplished storyteller” of “rare and wonderful” romance (Los Angeles Daily News), three unconventional women vow never to marry—only to be overtaken, one at a time, by the exquisite pleasures of unexpected love. Now all three of Jane Feather’s novels are together in one delightful eBook bundle: THE HOSTAGE BRIDE It’s bad enough that Portia Worth is taken in by her uncle, the Marquis of Granville, after her father dies. But it truly adds insult to injury when the outlaw Rufus Decatur, the Granvilles’ archenemy, attempts to abduct the Marquis’s daughter—only to kidnap his bastard niece by accident. Portia, a misfit with the audacity to believe herself the equal of any man, does not take kindly to being abducted—mistakenly or otherwise. Decatur is in for the challenge of his life—both on the battlefield and in the bedroom. THE ACCIDENTAL BRIDE With her untidy hair, rumpled clothes, and ink-stained fingers, Phoebe Carlton isn’t the kind of woman men fall in love with. But after her older sister dies, she seems like a reasonable substitute to her sister’s husband, Cato, the Marquis of Granville. Only when Phoebe looks at Granville—really looks at him—does she fall disastrously in love. A cold-blooded engagement will be torture, knowing this darkly, breathtakingly attractive man would never love her. So Phoebe decides to try something different—a little change in wardrobe, a daring new attitude . . . and a bit of brazen seduction. THE LEAST LIKELY BRIDE One moment Lady Olivia Granville is strolling along, her nose buried in Greek philosophy; the next she’s plunging down a rocky cliff, only to regain consciousness on a pirate ship. Her captor, though, is no ordinary pirate. The wickedly handsome master of the Wind Dancer is a physician and an artist. And when he turns his glittering eyes on her, he sees not the bookish young girl Olivia has always been, but a passionate beauty ready to embark on the adventure—and the love—of a lifetime.
