Three SWEET Marriage of Convenience Western Romances in ONE Boxset! If you believe in heroes… If you know that the power of love will heal all wounds… Then you’ll love these light-hearted, clean and wholesome romances of convenient arrangements that unfold into lasting love. The Brides of Purple Heart Ranch series features Wounded Warriors, the women they fall for, and the loyalest pack of dogs you’ll ever meet! ON HIS BENDED KNEE Sgt. Dylan Banks lost more than just his leg in the war. His fiancée and family turned their backs on him as well. Now, he’s determined to create a safe place where wounded warriors like himself can heal. But a hidden zoning law requires all residents of the Purple Heart Ranch to be married. To save his dream, Dylan and his men will have to tie the knot—but can a man with such deep scars inside and out believe in love again? Maggie Shaw lost both her job as a veterinary technician and her apartment on the same day. Who knew her unreasonable landlord would kick her out for being four dogs over the one pet limit? Now, she and her gang of special-needs dogs are in trouble. Fate puts her in Dylan’s path with a proposal that seems too good to be true—but can her heart bear a loveless marriage of convenience? Dylan yearns to reach out for Maggie’s healing touch, but he keeps his distance, convinced his wounds are too deep for her embrace. Maggie sees past Dylan’s injuries, but if she fails to capture his heart they both could lose it all: her beloved animals, his ranch, and each other. HAND OVER HIS HEART Francisco DeMonti has always been a man with a plan. Though his last plan led to his entire squad being wounded on a mission in Afghanistan. Now he’s seeking redemption by getting all the men in his unit hitched so they can stay together and heal. But his own heart is under lock and key due to the shrapnel around it that could kill him at any moment. After years of scraping and saving, Eva Lopez finally steps foot onto a college campus only to be yanked away by the mean streets she came from. A local gang threatens her family’s safety until a wounded veteran offers a reprieve: marry a soldier in exchange for protection and the freedom to attend school. Fran has every intention of directing Eva towards one of his brothers in arms, men who aren’t in danger of a sudden death, but he can’t resist the brainy brunette and proposes to her himself. He’ll protect her for as long as he breathes, but falling in love is futile for a man with a ticking time bomb in his chest. Eva can’t help falling for the man who is making her dreams come true, but when he keeps her at arm’s length, can she convince him to make this marriage more than a convenience no matter how much or how little time they have left? OFFERING HIS ARM Reed Cannon may be a numbers guy but being minus one arm due to enemy fire hasn’t slowed him down. Now he’s faced with a new challenge—find a bride so he can stay on the rehabilitation ranch that has given him and his squad back their lives. Reed turns to a dating app to narrow down the selection of potential brides. The woman who matches him nearly 100% is accessible online, but out of reach in reality. Sarai Austin has done the impossible, she’s found a great guy online. The problem is now he wants to meet in person, and Sarai's not ready for IRL. Her profile picture was taken three years and thirty pounds ago. To hide her weight issues, she tells Reed she’s out of town on business. All she needs is a couple of months to lose the weight and get back down to model-size. What she doesn’t count on is running into Reed in town. After meeting in person, Reed knows Sarai is the one. But as the two grow closer, their insecurities get in the way. Reed isn’t sure he’s enough for her. Sarai is certain she’s too much for him. When the lies and doubts come to a head, will their relationship be over before it has a chance to begin?

Shanae Johnson was raised by Saturday Morning cartoons and After School Specials. She still doesn’t understand why there isn’t a life lesson that ties the issues of the day together just before bedtime. While she’s still waiting for the meaning of it all, she writes stories to try and figure it all out. Her books are wholesome and sweet, but her heroes are hot and her heroines are full of sass!

And by the way, the E elongates the A. So it’s pronounced Shan-aaaaaaaa. Perfect for a hero to call out across the moors, or up to a balcony, or to blare outside her window on a boombox. If you hear him calling her name, please send him her way!

This set contains three stand-alone books, but I enjoyed reading them together since it allowed me to get to know the characters better. The Purple Heart Ranch setting is familiar and provides consistency and story integrity. The veterans who use the ranch for therapy and healing, live by the code of honor they learned in the service. They have found a refuge with fellow warriors who struggle with physical and emotional wounds. When the men learn that the zoning regulations require the ranch to house families, these single men must quickly find brides who will accept them despite their scars and flaws. These brave men do not balk at this challenge. With faith and divine intervention, women who also need healing and acceptance, cross their paths at the right time and place. I like how the author presents lighthearted stories, yet deals sensitively with difficult topics such as poverty, neglect, abuse, illness, and self-esteem. Is the Purple Heart Ranch large enough to house the battle-scarred men and women who enter its gates longing for love and acceptance? Read these stories and meet some brave men and women. I am looking forward to reading the rest of this series. Thanks to the author for a complimentary copy of this three book set.

The Brides of Purple Heart Ranch Boxset Volume 1: Three Sweet Marriage of Convenience Western Romances offers readers a collection of heartwarming tales set in the rugged landscapes of the Wild West. While the concept of marriage of convenience and the promise of sweet romances held potential, the execution left something to be desired. As an experienced reader, I found this boxset to be an average read overall.

The stories within this collection followed a predictable pattern, lacking in originality and depth. The characters, although likable, felt somewhat one-dimensional, failing to truly captivate my emotions. The romances unfolded at a swift pace, leaving little room for development and exploration of the relationships.

Despite these shortcomings, I must acknowledge the book's saving grace—the sweetness factor. The author managed to infuse each story with a genuine sense of warmth and tenderness. The relationships, although lacking depth, were sprinkled with moments of heartwarming connection and genuine affection, making them somewhat enjoyable to follow.

Additionally, the Western setting was vividly portrayed, immersing readers in a world of ranches, cowboys, and wide-open spaces. The attention to detail in the historical backdrop added a layer of authenticity to the narratives, lending a nostalgic charm to the overall reading experience.

In conclusion, The Brides of Purple Heart Ranch Boxset Volume 1 offers a light and sweet escape for fans of Western romance. While the stories may lack depth and originality, the tender moments and well-crafted setting provide a modicum of enjoyment. If you're seeking an undemanding read that offers a brief respite from reality, this boxset might just fit the bill.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than I expected
Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2019

I'm not usually for pets or soldier books, but this one was good. Well written, unique storylines. I loved the way the names of the dogs matched their injuries, and the injuries of each dog visioned to one of the injuries the vets suffered, but didn't mimic it exactly. But the vets and the dogs were just small topics in the much larger love stories. A bit idealistic, but sweet, clean, romances. Each story stands alone, but in thought the writing was really good, so I bought the last 2 stories of the last 2 couples very inexpensively, and they were just as good as the first two. Highly recommend this author for anyone who wants a sweet, clean, romance featuring injured but handsome and gentlemanly men who live to protect, and strong, kind-hearted but not dependent, women.

And if you love pets, you'll love this crew.

I applaud the author for tackling difficult subjects, as each injury & different abilitie, are not ever the same same. Thus said, this set is very shallow, in an "I told you so way". I have also read one of the stories recently as a stand-a-lone Mail order bride book that was very short. I don't like Literary Greed. I realize the author doesn't make very much per Kindle copy, but I object to ripping people off.

Purple Heart Ranch was a healing place for the wounded veterans. Using horse back riding as therapy for impaired movement is what brought Dylan back to life, Dr. Pate is there to help then when needed and reminding them that love heals the internal wounds. They didn’t leave the ranch, not wanting to exposed any more hurt. For Dylan j His family and fiancé didn’t want him, Now the Doctor is shoes king of arranged marriage, love would come later.
Maggie was a vet tech and her love for those left at the clinic doorsteps touch her, she too had been left at school, and parents never picked her up.
Dr tells them they have a lot in common, and marriage is needed to keep the ranch going for the veterans. Good story of veterans how their lives had been changed for so many, enjoyable and heartwarming.

Several Army veterans live on a ranch, trying to help each other with the physical and psychological wounds, and planning to extend this spirit towards troubled youth. When a hidden zoning law requires all inhabitants of the ranch to be married, the men will have to do what they can to keep the ranch. Their psychologist Dr Patel does all he can to help them find the right brides.
This edition contained the first three books in this series, although in my opinion book is the wrong word - these are shorter stories, I think novellas is the word?
And that is a pity, because the plot and the characters deserved so much more, as did the brilliant storytelling. I fell in love with the protagonists of each story, and suffered along with them.
I will definitely continue with this series.

I enjoyed the stories, especially the inclusion of ex military characters facing challenges but seeking to provide a place for other ex-service personnel. A zoning issue means they reluctantly need to consider introducing women into their lives or face losing the ranch. The stories are each different, but feature strong women who have faced challenges but it is not a case of one sided rescue. Dylan and Maggie are still my favourite characters, although they all have plenty to offer, their first meeting was particularly enjoyable. Maggie's dogs are also important and add something to the ranch community.

There are a number of life challenges raised in the stories, all of which are dealt with very well and draw you in. They are beautiful and encouraging stories. I have revisited the stories and will again. I plan to read others in the series and by the author.
