The chapter opens as he waits for dinner, reflecting on his younger brother Grant’s deployment and a decade-old vow made at his parents’ graveside. Distracted by thoughts of dating, he nearly burns his house when a hot pad catches fire, then scrambles to extinguish it.

Walker  \nBRIDES & BROTHERS  \n“A witty and fun modern retelling of the classic Seven Brides for Seven Brothers that will leave readers smiling, swooning, and delighting in the Happy Ever Afters!”  \n—InD’tale Magazine  \n“In this thoroughly engaging novel, Anneka R. Walker combined laughout-loud moments with occasional snippets of wisdom. Camille’s plan to marry off her brothers-in-law, while quite brilliant, initially seemed somewhat selfish to me. Yet, her heart was in the right place when she played matchmaker, engaging each of her friends with a Peterson brother. Despite her meticulous plans and careful execution, her picture of a happy family kept stumbling, especially when her matches did not go as intended. Hilarious situations arose when the girls concocted petty acts of revenge orthe boys planned surprise adventures. While engaged in numerous shenanigans, all the characters finally learned to become more mature, with their love for family rekindled. Despite its lighthearted tone, Brides and Brothers thus presented an insightful read as well.”  \n—Readers’ Favorite  \n“Brides and Brothers is a clever retelling of a classic romance. Filled with heart and humor, Ms. Walker has crafted a swoon-worthy story that readers will want to read over and over again!”  \n—Tiffany Odekirk, author of Love Sidelined  \n“Anneka Walker weaves a delightful story with Aiden and Camille, giving a fun contemporary twist on a classic tale. Brides and Brothers will keep you cheering for seven happily ever afters.”  \n—Chalon Linton, author of the Flying in Love series  \n“Brides and Brothers is a true delight. It’s laugh-out-loud funny, and the  \ncharming cast of characters will have you rooting for their happily everafters. It’s the kind of book you smile while reading.”  \n—Sarah Alva, author of The Doctor and the Midwife  \nTHE MASKED BARON  \n“Romance, suspense, and the supernatural effectively intertwine in this captivating Regency from Walker (Love in Disguise) . . . The engrossing central mystery and electric chemistry between the spirited characters keep the pages turning. This rousing romance is sure to win Walker new readers.”  \n—Publishers Weekly  \n“The sinister forest backdrop is atmospheric, and the mystery surrounding the baron and his lost family creates a diverting, gothic read with supernatural elements. The romance arcs towards a natural conclusion, but the author ’s techniques add tension, which makes the inevitable very beguiling. The manor house staff members are all integral to the story. Themes of self-forgiveness and trust are dealt with compassionately, integrated into a very well-thought-out tale. Recommended for readers who love a clean romance with a difference.”  \n—Historical Novels Review  \n“A superbly crafted and fully entertaining novel that combines elements of romance and suspense, The Masked Baron by Anneka R.
