Author: Dana Alden

Dana Alden writes historical western romance set in nineteenth-century Montana, combining frontier work with families seeking stability. Mining for Love is the second Mountain Men of Montana novel and follows Cordelia Watson after wartime loss and a broken engagement leave her hoping to begin again in Virginia City. J. B. Wood agrees to help even though he would rather concentrate on his gold claim, but threats around Delia force him to reconsider what he values. A Romance.io series record names the sequence, the central pair, and its sequence placement following Rescued by the Mountain Man. A Goodreads edition page corroborates the author-title pairing, 2019 publication, and second-series position. Mining for Love uses mining as both occupation and metaphor, contrasting the pursuit of a claim with the harder work of trust. Readers meet a Montana setting shaped by risk, secrecy, protection, alongside a chance to rebuild a household after earlier plans collapse.
