Claybornes' Brides (Rose Hill) Series---author Julie Garwwod's sweeping historical western romance saga
1879.
In Blue Belle, Montana, everyone knew better than to mess with the
Claybornes. The brothers had once been a mismatched gang of street
urchins—until they found an abandoned baby girl in a New York city
alley, named her Mary Rose, and headed west to raise her to be a lady.
They became a family—held together by loyalty and love if not by
blood—when suddenly they faced a crisis that threatened to tear them
apart....
Trouble came to town with one Lord Harrison Stanford
MacDonald. Armed with a swagger and six-shooter, he cut a striking
figure—but it soon became apparent to Mary Rose that he was too much of a
gentleman to make it in her rough-and-tumble town. She asked her
brothers to teach him the basics of frontier survival, which he acquired
with ease. And soon he possessed a deep and desperate love for Mary
Rose. She returned his affection wholeheartedly... until MacDonald
revealed a secret that challenged everything she believed about herself,
her life, and her newfound love. Now her search for identity and
meaning would begin, raising questions that could only be answered if
she listened to the truth within her heart....

CLAYBORNES ARE BACK! AND LOVE IS IN BLOOM! — First introduced in Julie
Garwood's magnificent New York Times bestseller For the Roses, which
inspired the Hallmark Hall of Fame television film Rose Hill, the
Clayborne brothers of Blue Belle, Montana, have been embraced by
millions worldwide. Now Julie Garwood spins the individual stories of
these three spirited brothers -- once a mismatched gang of street
urchins -- in a trio of special novels that begins with One Pink Rose.
Travis
Clayborne may be the youngest of the Clayborne brothers, but he's most
definitely his own man. Unless it means saying no to his beloved Mama
Rose. And that's why Travis is escorting young Bostonian Emily Finnegan
to Golden Crest, Montana -- where she'll discover what awaits her as a
mail-order bride. Emily has made it perfectly clear that she's taken
charge of her destiny and nothing is going to interfere. Falling in love
with the perfect stranger isn't part of her plan, but the journey with
Travis across this beautiful, rugged land opens her eyes... and her
heart. Perhaps her destiny isn't exactly as she imagined.
Douglas
Clayborne will never turn his back on anyone in need, and everyone in
Blue Belle knows it. Time and again, his intolerance of cruelty of any
kind has made him a champion of the defenseless ... but his quiet
strength faces its ultimate battle when he meets Isabel Grant. He
arrives at her ranch to pick up the magnificent Arabian stallion he's
purchased, but he cannot leave the vulnerable woman behind when he
discovers the danger that threatens her. Convincing the stubborn,
strong-willed beauty that she needs him is another matter. Douglas can
stop the men from stealing her ranch and her horses, but he cannot stop
Isabel Grant from stealing his heart.
