The Lawman Meets His Match
Successful Seattle matchmaker Beth Wallin has her most challenging assignment yet—find Deputy Hart McCormick a bride. Beth’s still smarting after the handsome lawman spurned her affections a year ago. But if she finds Hart a wife, Beth will gain favor with the city’s most influential women...and perhaps free her own heart, as well.
Marriage is the last thing on the deputy’s mind. After tragically losing his sweetheart, he vowed never to love again. But as sweet, spunky Beth introduces him to potential fiancées, Hart finally feels a spark...for her! The stubborn bachelor will be Beth’s first matchmaking miss, unless they can both admit that she just might be his perfect match.

And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
—1 John 4:16
“I wouldn’t want anything to happen to you.”
Hart’s gaze moved to the wharves, as if he saw a gang of marauding pirates rather than busy longshoremen.
Beth stared at him.
“I’d hate to have to explain to your brothers,” he added.
Well! She was about to tell him exactly what she thought of the idea when she noticed a light in his eyes. Was that a twinkle in the gray?
Beth tossed her head. “Oh, they’ll take your side. They always say I have more enthusiasm than sense.”
He shrugged. “I know a few women who match that description.”
Beth grinned. “But none as pretty as me.”
“That’s the truth.” His gaze warmed, and she caught her breath. Hart, flirting with her? It couldn’t be!
Silly! Why did she keep reacting that way? He wasn’t interested in her. He’d told her so himself. And she wasn’t about to allow herself to take a chance on love again, especially not with Hart McCormick.
Thank you for choosing Beth and Hart’s story. I hope you enjoyed watching the youngest, and most determined, Wallin meet her match. If you missed any of the other stories in the Frontier Bachelors series, look for The Bride Ship (Allegra and Clay), Would-Be Wilderness Wife (Catherine and Drew),
