title: The Husband Tree (Montana Marriages, Book 2)
author:  Mary Connealy 
description: <div>Connealy has written another wonderful historical, and her trademark humor is apparent throughout. There's also romance, adventure and even some suspense thrown in. Don't miss this great new read.</div> (Patsy Glans <i>Romantic Times</i> 2009-11-20)<br /><br /><div><div><div>I am enamored with the Montana Marriages series. It is baffling to me how each and every story can grip you further. The catty whit is so amusing and the characters are lovely. The issues dealing with real world problems are incredibly woven in a western historical standpoint and cause a reader to truly think. The growing love between protagonists is breathe taking and palpable. As a mother of a new baby, reading and watching Belle's days with her girls especially her infant is amazing. I cannot imagine nursing while riding on horseback, much less changing a diaper in mid gallop without missing a beat. I am thrilled and enchanted to the bone by the tale devised by Mary's imagination and I cannot wait for the third installment in the series The Wildflower Bride. In this book you get a taste for what might be in for Wade Sawyer and Abby Lind. *sigh* Anticipation.</div></div></div> (Margaret Chind <i>Novel Reviews</i> 2010-01-04)

  The “First Lady of the West,” #1 New York
  
  
  Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller, welcomes you home to
  
  
  Parable, Montana—where love awaits.
  
  
  With his father’s rodeo legacy to continue and a prosperous
  
  
  spread to run, Walker Parrish has no time to dwell on wrecked relationships.
  But
  
  
  country-western sweetheart Casey Elder is out of the spotlight and back in
  
  
  Parable, Montana. And Walker can’t ignore that his “act now, think later”
  
  
  passion for Casey has had consequences. Two teenage
  
  
  consequences!
  
  
  Keeping her children’s paternity under wraps has always been
  
  
  part of Casey’s plan to give them normal, uncomplicated lives. Now the best
  way
  
  
  to hold her family together seems to be to let Walker be a part of it—as her
  
  
  husband of convenience. Or will some secrets—like Casey’s desire to be the
  
  
  rancher’s wife in every way—unravel, with unforeseen results?
