The Chef. The Archer Family Ranch, #1

In 1880s Tombstone, one sprawling ranch family is about to change - one bride at a time. Sadie Walker has run her family's Chicago bakery since she was barely tall enough to reach the counter. So when she loses her parents and the bank takes it all in a single afternoon, she loses far more than a building - she loses the only place she's ever truly belonged. Then a letter arrives from her twin sister out west, with a strange and tender proposition: a young man in Tombstone needs a wife, quickly and quietly, to secure the loan for the restaurant he's dreamed of.
It would be a marriage of convenience, nothing more. And it might be exactly the fresh start Sadie needs. But the chef waiting at the other end of the line never asked for a bride who knows her way around an oven better than he does - and neither of them is prepared for what happens when convenience starts to feel a great deal like home. Meanwhile, at Archer Ranch, a gruff widowed father is still grieving the wife he lost, six sisters are watching everything with opinions of their own, and the family Sadie married into holds more secrets - and more heart - than she ever expected.  The Chef is the first book in the Archer Family Ranch saga, a sweet historical romance about losing everything, marrying a stranger, and discovering the family you build along the way - for readers who love wholesome frontier romance and warm western towns.
