Description
Emma Lang is always on my must-read list. --Cynthia Eden

It is a vast spread in the eastern wilds of the newly independent Republic of Texas, the ranch their parents fought for. . .and died for. To the eight Graham siblings, no matter how much hard work or hard love it takes, life is unthinkable without. . .

In the wake of his parents' murder, Matthew Graham must take the reins at the Circle Eight. He also needs to find a wife in just thirty days, or risk losing it all. Plain but practical, Hannah Foley seems the perfect bride for him. . .until after the wedding night. Their marriage may make all the sense in the world, but neither one anticipates the jealousies that will result, the treacherous danger they're walking into, or the wildfire of attraction that will sweep over them, changing their lives forever. . .

Praise for Emma Lang and her novels:

"A sweet and sensual Western in which the heroine discovers her inner strength with the help of a delightfully sexy hero." --Angela Knight, New York Times bestselling author

"With a fresh voice and engaging characters, Emma Lang's Restless Heart kept me reading late into the night." --Tina Leonard, bestselling author

        December 12, 2011
        Matthew Graham, the oldest of eight siblings, told the Republic of Texas land office that his wife, Hannah, made him eligible to stake a family ranch claim. Now Matthew must find and present a wife named Hannah within 30 days. Luckily, he meets Hannah Foley, who accepts Matt’s unusual marriage proposal with alacrity, thinking herself too plain to be picky. Despite her unorthodox marriage, she is determined to fit in with the Graham family and find the gumption to dig deeper into the mystery of Matthew’s parents’ death and the disappearance of his five-year-old brother. While the premise is simplistic and Lang relies too much on chestnut western vernacular to enhance the setting, the sweet, engaging romance between Matthew and Hannah allows the story to mosey along at an agreeable trot. With seven siblings, Hannah’s grandmother, colorful neighbors, and unresolved mysteries, there are plenty of yarns for Lang to expand upon in future outings. Agent: Bradford Literary Agency.
