Dear Reader,

Thank you for making the Kincaid trilogy an outstanding success! I hope you enjoy The Merry Widows stories as well.

Laugh, cry a little, then rejoice with two cousins and their friend who find themselves widowed within the same year and decide they will not marry again.

Despite the problems which bring them to live together, each woman confesses to finding more joy than grief in her widowed state, for each woman carries a secret sorrow as a legacy of her marriage. Mary is desperate to disprove a taunting curse. Catherine seeks the one thing denied her. Sarah hides the darkest secret of them all.

Join me for love and laughter in the New Mexico territory of the 1880’s as their stories unfold and three very special heroes find their way into the widow’s home and into their hearts.

Happy trails,
Theresa Michaels
