If you thought that mail order brides were a thing of the past, think again. While the majority of mail order bride romances take place in historical settings, especially the wide and lonely expanses of the wild west there are a growing number of authors who are writing about mail order brides in contemporary settings.
Yes, some of them are still western based, but one of my favorites are the military heroes who yearn for a female companion.
IF you want quick but satisfying reads ranging from two to three hours, this is the perfect micro-niche to search in. It is also a niche filled with series ranging from trilogies to epic on-going collections. Though the series normally evolve around a setting (mountain men) or a town there are also some cross-overs including mail order brides for paranormal shifters!
