Five unwanted women. One lawless logging town. And a journey no delicate bride would dare to make.

Maeve Harrison knows exactly what men see when they look at her?and it is never beauty. Tall, sharp-tongued, plain-faced, and hardened by years in the Merrimack Mill, Maeve has long understood that marriage, comfort, and a family of her own are dreams meant for prettier women.

But when two recruiters arrive from Sawyerville, Oregon, looking for brides willing to marry the rough loggers of a frontier town, Maeve hears something different.

A chance.

Sawyerville is no polished settlement. It is a muddy, violent logging camp filled with nearly a thousand hard-drinking, brawling men and only a handful of women. Sheriff William Strong and his wife Molly believe brides may be the one thing that can turn the wild camp into a true town. But most women would never survive such a place.

Maeve and her four friends just might.

They have grown up poor, worked until their hands ached, and learned early how to defend themselves. When there is no room left for them among the recruited brides, they pay their own way and board the aging clipper ship Sea Spirit, bound on a brutal voyage from New York around Cape Horn to San Francisco. The ship is filthy, dangerous, and crewed by men every bit as rough as the loggers waiting in Oregon?but Maeve has not come this far to turn back.

By the time she reaches Sawyerville, she has already fought for her safety, her friends, and her future.

Now she must face the town everyone warned her against?and the men who may not know what to make of a bride who refuses to be weak.

Journey to Sawyerville is Book 3 in the Sawyerville Mail Order Brides series, a clean historical western romance about fierce women, rough men, frontier courage, and the unlikely brides who may be exactly what a wild Oregon logging town needs.
