Prairie Grooms is a series, so you’ll want to read these books in order to have the most fun.  Kit Morgan’s books are whimsical, sweet stories about romance, life and love, but especially about Clear Creek. One of the wackiest little towns in the old west! Also by Kit Morgan: The Prairie Bride Series, beginning with ‘His Prairie Princess’ And: The Holiday Mail Order Bride Series, beginning with ‘The Christmas Mail Order Bride’ Clear Creek was a quaint little place, one most men took one look at, and decided to settle. There was only one problem. There were no women. In fact, the town was so small, when women looked at it, they laughed then whipped their horses into a frenzy to get as far from it as possible.  This of course, left a mighty big hole in the hearts of the men who lived there. Duncan Cooke, aka The Duke of Stantham, also had a problem. He had a huge estate in England to manage, one not far from London, and it came with all the problems one would expect with an estate in disarray. Including six unwed cousins, women no man would touch for fear of losing either a limb, or worse.  Strange things happened to all who tried to court them, so they were left very unwed. But Duncan realized that Clear Creek had exactly what he needed. Men! And so with the help of his brother’s wife Sadie, he concocted a plan to send his cousins to Clear Creek as mail order brides! He just hoped the calamity that often followed them, didn't.
