Linda Broday's Forever His Texas Bride Spotlight and Giveaway
Title: Forever His Texas Bride
Author: Linda Broday
Series: Bachelors of Battle Creek, #3
Pubdate: December 1st, 2015
ISBN: 9781492602873
“There’s this thing between us that refuses to die. I’d like nothing better than to be able to…” His words faded. He’d give anything to change people’s views about his race…to be able to make her his wife.
But the world wasn’t that simple. Not for people like them.
All his life, Brett Liberty has straddled two worlds: white and Iroquois. The only place he’s truly at peace is with his wild mustangs. But after he’s arrested for the color of his skin, he discovers Rayna Harper in the cell next to him. Rough and tumble Rayna has known little kindness, but Brett sees the depth of her heart hidden beneath layers of hurt and fear, and he refuses to leave without her.
Fierce and loyal, kind and strong, Rayna is everything Brett has ever wanted. But the world doesn’t look kindly on a love like theirs, and he would rather let her go than bring her pain. Yet when the demons of his past threaten her future, Brett realizes he will do anything to keep Rayna safe…and make her his.

Linda Broday’s latest is coming out this December! The final title in the Bachelor of Battle Creek trilogy, Forever His Texas Bride is sure to sweep readers off of their feet. To celebrate her new release, we’ve asked Linda to answer a “Quick Draw” either/or question and to share an excerpt with us!
Dancing or singing? Now this isn’t fair because I’m no good at either but put on a fast rock and roll tune or Texas swing and I can’t resist dancing. I’ve been known to embarrass my kids to death.
An Excerpt:
Rayna sat up, pushed back her cloud of russet hair, and got up from the bunk in Brett’s jail cell. It was then he saw that she wore a heavy pair of men’s brogans. What on earth! The shoes looked as though they might’ve come off a very poor dead man.
Her dirty dress had been mended so many times it looked like a patchwork quilt with none of the squares matching. But she seemed so spirited, so brave.
If society had ever allowed him to take a wife, he’d want someone like her. He hated to think he’d have spent all his life never knowing what it could be like to be happy like his brothers now were. While he waited to die, maybe they could pretend.
Maybe he could know what it was like to be loved.
Until they led him through those doors to a hangman, maybe he could have the bride prejudice had denied him. The bold notion made ripples dance under his skin.
Brett raised to a sitting position, ignoring the pain shooting through his back. “This may sound crazy, but I’m going to ask anyway. Rayna, do you think you could pretend to be my wife? Just until they take me away? No one will ever know but us, so they can’t hurt you.”
Turning, she dropped down beside him. Surprised tears bubbled in her eyes. “No one ever asked me to marry them before.”
“Is that a no?”
“I’d be honored to be your pretend wife,” she whispered, brushing his face with her fingers. “What do we do now?”
“Do you mind if I kiss you?”
“I’d like that…husband.”
Under her bright gaze, he lowered his head. But before their lips touched, the sound of a key grating in the lock made him jerk back. “Quick, go to your cell before they catch you with me.”
Rayna scurried into hers and quietly eased the door shut.
Just then a deputy sauntered in, taking care to keep his distance from Brett’s cell. “You alive, breed?”
Brett glared. “Disappointed?”
The deputy—a squat man who reminded Brett of a possum with little weasel eyes, grunted, shifting his gaze to Rayna. “Give any thought to my offer, woman?”
No one had to spell out what the deputy meant. Brett sought to tamp down his rising anger. He watched Rayna tilt her head at a defiant angle.
“The answer is the same as all the other times.”
The weasel shrugged and went back out. The minute the door locked shut, Rayna slowly walked into Brett’s cell and sat down beside him again. “I wish I could see the sky and smell the fresh air.”
“How long have you been in here?”
“Over a month, I think. With each sunrise I’ve been making a mark on the wall. The one today makes thirty-one. But no matter how much I want out, I’m not doing what that deputy wants,” she whispered. “I’ll never be a fine lady, but even I have my dignity. No one will ever take that.”
Though still hesitant, Brett took her small, dainty hand. Her skin shone white against his. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d touched someone who wasn’t family, but his pretend wife was different somehow. “Always stand on your principles. In the end, we still have to live with ourselves, look at our face in the mirror.”

Guest Blog Post and Giveaway: Top 10 Vacation Spots by Susanne Lord
Top 10 favorite vacation spots
1. The mile-long, former carriage drive between Chipping Campden and Broadway Tower in the Cotswolds. Not a soul to be seen, or modern sound to be heard. Hiking that path is like going back in time.
2. Kinkaku Ji, the Golden Temple, in Kyoto, Japan. This building is such a beauty, and surrounded by the most flawless view of nature, it almost defies belief.
3. The view of Chatsworth House from the nature walk is one of the most gorgeous prospects in all of England.
4. Sitting in Odori Park in Sapporo, Japan, listening to an ex-pat singing ‘Imagine’ by the Beatles with a beloved college friend is a favorite memory. I’d go back in a heartbeat.
5. The walk to the hunting tower at Lyme Park was like walking into a Bronte novel.
6. Seeing the city of Florence from the gardens of the Pitti Palace, and marveling over Brunelleschi’s Dome
7. The first view of Venice’s Grand Canal upon exiting the rail station
8. Wandering in Montmartre and happening upon the Lapin Agile
9. Looking out my hotel room window at Hassop Hall in Derbyshire, and seeing a lone tree shedding it’s pink, autumn leaves in a slow breeze. I fell even more in love with the English countryside.
10. Can’t leave off the white sand beaches of my grandmother’s island of Tokashiki. It’s insanely hot, but there’s not a more dazzling ocean or beach to be found in the world.
How many of you love to travel? I love to travel and have actually been to a couple of the places in Lord's top 10 list. If you could choose, which of the above destinations would you love to go to?
