ABOUT THE BOOK
What kind of woman would answer an advertisement and marry a stranger?
Escape into the history of the American West along with nine couples whose relationships begin with advertisements for mail-order brides. Placing their dreams for new beginnings in the hands of a stranger, will each bride be disappointed, or will some find true love?

EXCERPT FROM PERFECT FOR THE PREACHER
His hands found hers, surrounding them in warmth. “Please stay. I held every intention of making a grander impression on you…m–my bride.” He pressed his lips together as if the words tasted funny.
“I’m the one who must apologize. I was only caught off guard. I believed you’d write again to tell me of your date of arrival. I had planned on sending funds for your travels…” His fingers shifted, almost linking in between a few of hers. His touch didn’t bring fear, but rather a gentle promise of safety. A hope of a true home waiting where she could put everything behind her. “But I’m glad you’re here now.”
“Then…we’re still to wed?”
