A Message from Kendrick Parker

Word buzzing on the wires is that Brett and Jenna's author, Regan Taylor has finished my story! I'm plumb excited because I've been wanting to meet and marry my own bride. From what I understand my bride is Ms. Amanda Davis of Massachusetts. I also understand she can be a bit uppity in her speech, but she's a warm, loving woman that I can't live without.

We hear Regan is looking for just the right home for us -- other than the family homestead in Adler Creek. Check us out at www.Regantaylor.com!

Indentured Bride is now available at Awe-struck and Amazon.com!

Back from the deep sleep! This is Bea -- one of Jenna's friends

After a few ultra hectic months -- the day job was really kicking our author, Regan in the patooti -- some people just belong in stories as villans and nothing more, she's back! We in Adler Creek are eagerly awaiting our release in March of 2008.

We have our first reviews!

Cherokee at Coffeetime gave us 5 cups and said:

Indentured Bride is a remarkable tale with all the ingredients that keep the reader enthralled. Jenna and Brett are special characters that just bring warmth and sunshine into the heart. The reader cannot help but feel for them with all the events that play into their lives. The wagon train and the move out west was one that this reader could feel on the journey. Regan Taylor pens an extraordinary tale that is refreshing and intense. She creates a devilish villain in Julian that further mesmerizes the reader. I was so captivated with this adventure I wanted more.

From Anne K. Edwards said:

Talented author Reagan Taylor tells us a tale of two wounded hearts from two different worlds and their search for happiness and safety. Will they find it or will Jennifer's past return to threaten her? Will she have to return to the house of the man she so detests? I'm pleased to recommend this well told tale to any romantic or western romance fan who enjoys plenty of action. The story will pull you along as the realistic characters welcome you into their world. This is a tale that will leave you pleased at having read it and will have you looking for other books by this very able author.

Stay tuned! We'll have more to say soon!

Kendrick Parker

I'm Kendrick Parker and I'm the Parker brother who's a United States Marshal, the one in Indentured Bride who basically saved the day for Brett and Jenna. Mistaken Bride is my turn and word is Regan may be starting my story for the Nano-Write. I also heard that she is going to be creating a website for us grooms....and brides. I sure hope so because I'm ready to fall in love!

So, what's going on?

I heard some scuttlebutt in town that our author, Regan Taylor, has been busy with her errata on Treasures Antique Store: The Photograph -- part of another one of her series. She wants to get back to our series, but with The Photograph to finish up edits and then doing some reworking on her two books she got the rights back to and this book she calls a time travel -- America's Hero it's gonna be awhile before she gets to my brother Kendrick's story.

Now here's something interesting -- there's a Kendrick in that Photograph story, but it's not my brother. My brother Kendrick is a United States Marshal in 1860. The one in the photograph is a knight. Not that my big brother couldn't be a knight. Afterall, aren't all us lawmen like knights in shining armour?

Yes, I meant armour.

Well I'll be investigating this and then heading home to the love of my life, Jenna.

Deputy Brett Parker

We have a release date!

We heard from our publisher this week -- Kathryn at Awe-Struck books and we are going to be published in March 2008! To say Regan, our author is estatic would be a gross understatement. She's beyond happy and so are we.

Now, if only she'd take some time to finish my brother Kendrick's story.....

Brett Parker

WE HAVE A HOME!!!!!!

We just got the word! Our author, Regan Taylor, has found a home for us! We're going to be living with Awe-struck books. She gave it a lot of thought and that is where we are going and we are so pleased. http://www.awe-struck.net/ That's Brett Parker below...for an idea about just what the Parker boys are about.

We just got the word -- our author is starting on our 2nd books!

We just got the word over the wires that our author, Regan Taylor, is going to be starting on Kendrick's story! On her yahoo group they are doing a writing challenge and she's FINALLY starting on our second story. Okay, okay, we know Brett and Jenna don't have a publisher yet, but with how well her other books are doing...Miranda's Heart and the Wicked Witch are best sellers and we saw some of the reviews for Spell Across Time: The Pentacle and readers are eating it up, so we are hoping to have our own home soon.

Meanwhile, we're excited to know Kendrick's story is on its way!

The characters of Indentured Bride

Meet Julian Carlman

You know, I'm not really half as bad as my neice, Jennifer makes me out to be. In fact, if you look at what she's done...she's really the bad seed of the piece. After all...it was HER father that killed himself, and ungrateful little bitch, she turned down my offer to help her...really help her. What was my thanks for offering her comfort on her first night in my home? She hit me over the head with a lamp. Now I'm dead...but my murder will be avenged. You see, I had plans for Jennifer, big plans. And she, she and that Deputy, Brett Parker, they ruined them all.

I had such plans. You see, I'm quite good with money. Not that I've ever really worked an honest day of my life. But who needs to work when you can gamble and, well, there are ways to help people who are in a jam that can be financially beneficial.

Jennifer...I've coveted her since she was a child. I planned and planned. I'd even convinced my sister that it would really be okay for Jennifer to marry me. So what if my idea of comforting her was spending the night in her arms?

Hitting me on the head put an end to that. What can you say about a woman who kills her kind uncle and leaves his body?

You can learn more about Regan, the wonderful lady who brought me to life at www.Regantaylor.com

Ever yours in slimy activities, Julian Carlman

Meet Jenna Parker

well, actually it's not really Jenna Parker...It's Martin. Well it's not really Jenna Martin either. You see, I'm running away, not from home or a husband. I did something much much worse. In my headlong flight to ended up on a wagon train west, but not just any wagon train. We're talking a mail order bride wagon train. But I don't feel like a mail order bride. In fact, I don't want to be a bride at all. So let's call it what it is, an indentured bride, okay. Every time I try to leave the train someone notices and stops me. To make it worse, just short of our arrival in Adler Creek, Wyoming I find out that some guy named Brett Parker has decided we're going to be married! Oh yes! And to make it worse, he's the Deputy Sheriff! Can you imagine being arrested by your own husband? Especially after you have fallen head over heels in love with the man?

And you've seen his picture? Who wouldn't want THAT gorgeous man coming home to her every night? But you know, I may have left my past behind...I just may be able to make this work.

Jenna

Meet Brett Parker

My name is Brett Parker and I am a Deputy Sheriff in Alder Creek, Wyoming. I've never really thought much about getting married but then some of the men in town started this idea of some mail order brides. I didn't plan on it...ask my best friend Rick, the Sheriff. I wasn't really looking for a bride. And then I met Jenna Parker. Oh, and in case you're wondering...that's me, Brett...just above Regan's name.
