‘Sweet, hilarious and totally delicious, Seven Brides for Beau McBride is the perfect book to escape into. I adore this series!’ -- <B>Hannah Grace</B> ‘A jewel of a novel. It had me snort laughing and swooning all at once. The perfect romantic escape from today’s troubles that I didn’t know I needed. Please can I request the TV series!’ -- <B>Tess Woods</B> ‘Bless yore beautiful hide, Amy Barry. I’m in seventh heaven after devouring the latest McBride adventure. Ellie and Beau are adorably unputdownable!’ -- <B>Amy Andrews</B> ‘Thank goodness there are so many McBride siblings, what a delight to be back in the glorious chaos of Buck's Creek, Montana: I love it here. Author Amy Barry has hit her stride with her third instalment of this beloved series, a pitch-perfect epistolary romance. Beau's story is driven by a bet with his willful sister Junebug, who orders up no less than six mail-order brides to compete with the one Beau found himself, resulting in a kind of frontier version of The Bachelor. There's a classic Cyrano situation with loyal Ellie writing her beautiful friend Diana's letters to Beau. There are mistletoe kisses and stolen moments, a Christmas dance and a marauding bear. Pure joyful, hilarious escape.’ -- <B>Clare Fletcher</B> ‘Seven Brides for Beau McBride is the sparkling, swoony, and laugh-out-loud funny romance we all need right now. The perfect tonic for these turbulent times. You’ll be smiling all the way through.’ -- <b>Mimi Matthews</b>
