Conventional Pursuit E-Book

I studied my husband and his brothers, three good men who almost seemed a little intimidating. 
I drank my coffee, thankful to be on their good side.

"The book ended and I'm devastated!"

Grady Webster is an independently wealthy marketer, and host of a seasonal duck hunting club. He approaches his decision to marry the same way he does business. After doing research, weighing pros and cons, he writes to Mavis Fischer upon a hunting guide’s recommendation, her stepbrother.

Therein, Grady proposes marriage.

Mavis Fischer is getting married. She knows Grady from his letters but has yet to meet him face to face. She's beautiful, capable hosting large events, and wonderful with people. Perfect choice of bride on paper, but she has a devastating secret.

Dive inside...

The peaceful rise of floor heat and the grazing cattle outside my egress windows made for a peaceful start to a new day.

My husband, sitting at the table dressed for church, did not.

I turned around and drove back to the house after imagining news headlines HIGH SPEED CHASE BETWEEN HUSBAND AND WIFE.

Grady said very little as we entered the house. He didn’t need to. His clenched jaw, pajama pants, unbuttoned flannel shirt like he’d been in a hurry to get dressed, said it all.

I welcomed the heat, washed coffee cups, and put them away while Grady got ready for church. When he returned to the kitchen, I headed for the shower.

Now at the breakfast table across from me, Grady was dressed in a blue shirt, matching tie, and gray slacks.

“No words,” he muttered.

I smoothed my hair with a flat hand. “I suppose you wanted a wife that’s not silly.”

“Too late to worry about that now.” He took a sip of coffee.

“So much for having no words,” I said.

“I don’t know whether to kiss you or strangle you.” He was nervous. Something I’d learned to detect in the short time I’d been married to him.

“Thanks.”

“What were you thinking?” He held up his hand. “Sorry, what were you hoping to accomplish?”

“I wanted to find the flippers to prove to you I’m, I wasn’t…I mean, I did something crazy. That is, sometimes I do crazy things, but I’m not crazy.”

Get ready for twists and turns that will keep you turning the pages until the very end!
