About The Book
From the beloved author of Kit McBride Gets a Wife and Marrying Off Morgan McBride comes a ‘sweet, hilarious and totally delicious’ love story (Hannah Grace). Beau McBride wants a wife, and his meddling little sister Junebug is itching to find him a mail-order bride. But why stop at just one?
Beau McBride reckons he’s ready for marriage. But his ego is bigger than his brain, and his little sister Junebug can’t trust him to find the right woman. So they make a bet, both placing ads in the Matrimonial News to find the perfect bride. Junebug is set on winning, but there’s a hitch: Beau has made his pick, and she’s beyond beautiful. Junebug knows looks ain’t everything, so to even the odds she invites six more women to meet her brother.
Ellie Neale doesn’t expect much from life. Which is good, since life hasn’t given her much, except a head full of daydreams and her beautiful best friend Diana. But after answering an ad to be a mail-order bride, Diana is leaving for Montana. Ellie is happy for her, really she is ... after all, she was the one who wrote Diana’s letters for her.
Ellie can’t bear the thought of losing Diana, so she answers an ad from a man in the same town her friend is headed for. But when they arrive, Ellie and Diana discover they’ve answered an ad for the same husband. Along with five other women.
With seven brides vying for Beau’s attention, he needs to make a decision – fast. The only problem is, his heart is pulled to the one woman who wants nothing to do with him.

‘Bless yore beautiful hide, Amy Barry. I’m in seventh heaven after devouring the latest McBride adventure. Ellie and Beau are adorably unputdownable!’
– Amy Andrews
‘Thank goodness there are so many McBride siblings, what a delight to be back in the glorious chaos of Buck's Creek, Montana: I love it here. Author Amy Barry has hit her stride with her third instalment of this beloved series, a pitch-perfect epistolary romance. Beau's story is driven by a bet with his willful sister Junebug, who orders up no less than six mail-order brides to compete with the one Beau found himself, resulting in a kind of frontier version of The Bachelor. There's a classic Cyrano situation with loyal Ellie writing her beautiful friend Diana's letters to Beau. There are mistletoe kisses and stolen moments, a Christmas dance and a marauding bear. Pure joyful, hilarious escape.’
– Clare Fletcher
‘Seven Brides for Beau McBride is the sparkling, swoony, and laugh-out-loud funny romance we all need right now. The perfect tonic for these turbulent times. You’ll be smiling all the way through.’
– Mimi Matthews
