For Alfonso, family feels like a cage. For Philadelphia, it feels like home at last.
Alfonso came to the Weaver farm in 1874 with six of his siblings after a seventh-his older sister Bella-became a mail-order bride. Eight years later, he's still there-and wishes he weren't. But two sisters have wed and moved off, so Bella is committed to making sure he stays put. For now, he's stuck chopping wood, picking fruit, making sausages, and dreaming of a day he can go out on his own-while working hard to leave his childhood anger and bossiness behind.
Philadelphia has spent her whole life tagging along with her father as he travels from one baseball club to the next, first as a player and later as a manager. A snowstorm traps her and Papa with the Weavers, and she discovers a new sort of life with a big, boisterous family-and the handsome but taciturn Alfonso. Eventually, though, the roads will clear, and she'll have to decide whether she'd rather stay there or follow her father to Silvertown and his next club.
Alfonso is the second book in the Romancing the Weavers series-a clean, wholesome historical western romance filled with humor, family bonds, and unexpected love.
