Abilene: Rescue Me - (Mail Order Brides) Book 17 Kindle Edition
A hopeless romantic, Abilene is on the run again, dreaming of her happily ever after- an understanding husband, a house in the country, and peace.
Sheriff Mark Joseph learned the hard way that love only leads to heartache and is not worth the risk. The last thing he needs is a wife. Long work hours with a healthy dose of danger are the best antidote to a broken heart.
Will Abilene find a way to penetrate the barriers of the sheriff’s heart?

About the author

Kimberly Grist is married to her high school sweetheart, Nelson. She and her husband have three adult sons, one with Down syndrome, and they are passionate about encouraging others.
Kim has enjoyed writing since she was a young girl; however, she began writing her first novel in 2017. “I believe you should come away refreshed and inspired after reading a book. Despite my best efforts, sometimes life is difficult. I need and want an outlet, an opportunity to relax and escape to a place where obstacles are met and overcome. My stories are designed to entertain, refresh, and inspire you, the reader. They combine History, Humor, and Romance with an emphasis on Faith, Friends, and Good Clean Fun.”

- Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2025A totally awe-inspiring western historical! The story twists and turns as a sheriff and a mail-order bride travel to Texas. The characters are priceless and believable. ENJOY!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2023I have to admit, I adore Mail Order Bride stories and when written by this author, I know it will be a heart felt adventure!
Abilene needs saving. Her terrible father is trying to sell her off to a drunken husband, but her mother sends her off to her uncle's so she can avoid that trial.
Sheriff Mark knows his job does not allow time for love... A wife wants her husband home, not working all hours and in danger.
But you just never know what fate and God has in store and these two just might find a happy ever after!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2025I enjoyed Abilene and Sheriff Joseph's chemistry. The story moves along quickly and is easily read in an afternoon.
I purchased this eBook. All opinions are mine alone without expectation or compensation.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2023Abilene is another fun and exciting mail order bride story. Abilene certainly had a reason to leave home and seek a husband chosen by her uncle. She was definitely in danger. Mark didn’t want a bride, but he soon changed his mind. There are some “getting to know you” moments, some danger, and some excitement, and, of course, some romance. I recommend it to readers who enjoy historical western romance stories.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2023I enjoyed my interlude into the past. It won't disappoint. My great grandmother was a mail order bride and I am always looking for good well written stories.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2023I enjoyed the book! The characters were interesting and there was excitement in the story. This is a standalone book even though it is part of a series. I highly recommend reading this book!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2023This started out interesting, turned a bit slow and then picked up. I loved the ending.
Once again Mrs. Grist has done it. Looking forward to more from this family.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2023Another great addition to a great series. I'm so glad that Abilene found her true love. I recommend this book.
