A RIVER’S BEND DUO ~ WANTED: THE SHERIFF & NO LESS THAN FOREVER are Available Now







http://www.amazon.com/Rivers-Bend-Duo-Tracy-Garrett-ebook/dp/B011SXNQQC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1438778945&sr=8-1&keywords=Tracy+Garrett 
I’m really excited to have these two stories released in one volume, since it's how I think of them--intertwined.  Originally released in the Lassoing a Groom & Lassoing a Bride anthologies, these stories take place at the same time—exactly the same time.

That timing, I admit, was an accident.  I was writing WANTED: THE SHERIFF, Matt & Martha’s story, and suddenly, in the middle of it, a young woman was brought to Martha’s brother, the doctor, for treatment.  While Matt & Martha were busy making calf eyes at each other, Dr. Franz discovered the love of his life. And pretty Rebekah Snow Redman turned out to be a fireball in spite of her fragile appearance. 


A RIVER’S BEND DUO
Wanted: The Sheriff
Martha Bittner may be considered a spinster at twenty-seven, but she’s not planning to stay that way. For four years, she’s wanted the sheriff of River’s Bend, Missouri, to notice her as more than a friend and a really good cook. With the first annual spring dance only weeks away, Martha decides to announce her intentions — and declares the sheriff a wanted man.

Sheriff Matthew Tate always thought he was better off a bachelor. Growing up in Boston society, where marriage is a business transaction and wealth his greatest asset, he’s learned to distrust all women’s intentions. None of them even catch his eye anymore — until pretty Martha Bittner tells him exactly what she wants… and he wonders why he ever resisted capture.

No Less Than Forever
Doctor Franz Bittner is satisfied with his life as it is. He has a good practice in a place where he is respected, in spite of his German birth. He has good friends and enough income to provide him with a few comforts. A wife would only complicate things. Then a tiny blond stranger is pulled from the river and everything changes. With one smile she captures his attention—and steals his heart.

Rebekah Snow Redmann barely survived her abusive husband’s attack. Though she was given to him to pay her father’s debts, she’d rather die than go back. Then she ends up in the care of the handsome local doctor and he stitches up more than her wounds—he mends her soul. With him, she discovers everything that she believes she can never have...a love that will last forever.

  2. Tracy,

    I've read both stories, and I'm in awe of how you connected them so seamlessly. As a writer, it's challenging enough to keep track of the details in one story let alone making sure all the details and plot points coincide in dual stories.

    And they're just darn good reading on top of that. *grin*

    1. :) Thank you, Kaye! I remember writing Martha & Matt's story, when Martha sees Franz making eyes at Rebekah, and I thought, oh, my! How am I going to do this? The secret? Editing. lol

  3. Tracy, you know how I love your writing! It takes real talent to be able to intertwine stories like this and make them come out right, as you did. I'm anxious to see what you've got in the works...any clues? LOL

    1. Thank you, Cheryl. My next story returns to River's Bend for Reverend Oltmann's story. He's going to meet a woman who challenges everything he thinks is necessary in a Godly wife. I'm having fun putting him and Maggie together.

  7. Hi Tracy, I apologize for not getting to read your post until this morning. But really enjoyed reading about these two interwined stories. I must admit I missed these the first time around but am more than eager to read them. Putting them on the Kindle as soon as I post this. Great cover too. Hoping the second go around does well. Wishing you the best.
