Kit McBride Gets a Wife is a story of a rugged, bookish cowboy named Kit McBride who is about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime when he’s saddled with a surprise mail-order bride. This hilarious historical romance is perfect for fans of Bridgerton and Calamity Jane.

Kit McBride knows that Buck’s Creek, Montana, is no place to find a wife. Fortunately, he isn’t looking for one. With his brothers and little sister Junebug, they manage just fine on their own. However, unbeknownst to Kit, Junebug is tired of cleaning and cooking for her big brothers. She decides to take matters into her own hands by placing an ad in The Matrimonial News to get him hitched.

Maddy Mooney, recently arrived from Ireland, is employed by an eccentric young widow determined to regain her wealth. When her mistress decides to answer an ad for a mail-order bride, Maddy is dragged along for the journey. Once they reach the West, Maddy's mistress abandons her to chase fortune further afield, leaving Maddy to assume the widow’s name, position, and matrimonial prospects.

Penniless and with no other recourse in the wilderness, Maddy must convince Kit that she’s the wife he never knew he needed.
