This review is from: One Day, My Prince (Faerie Tale Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)

Sarah Prince was raised in wealth, but very little affection, so she decided to seek adventures out West away from her protective family. She obtained employment as a schoolteacher and started a friendship with widowed Elizabeth Shorter and her seven daughters. After Elizabeth's death, Sarah came to live with the orphans,who are in danger of being separated, to come up with a plan to keep them together.

Enter handsome Joe White, deputy U.S. Marshall, who is bushwacked by two men and left for dead on the instructions of Deacon Moss who is jealous of Joe because his "girlfriend" Rosie slept with Joe free of charge. Joe's horse leads him to the home of the Shorter sisters where he is cared for by Alice, the oldest daughter, and Sarah. Alice convinces Joe to pretend to be her dead father to convince the traveling Judge that they are properly cared for. Joe decides the ruse will be even better if he and Sarah marry which they do.

Joe has told Sarah that he never plans to stay in one place and love a woman; however, as in all good romances, matters do change.

Sarah's parents and ex-fiancee arrive at Jacob's Crossing intending to take Sarah back home with them. They are not happy with their daughter's marriage and insist they will take the girls to New York with them if Sarah will come home.

In the meantime, another romance is developing between Mary Rose Sheppard (alias prostitute Rosie, who is now respectable) and Deacon Moss.

Enter the outlaws Joe is chasing and you have a sweet, charming story.
