Rugged lumberjack and sawmill owner, Sam Maynard, enjoys a happy-go-lucky life in the 1870s small town of Brownville, Nebraska. Seeking out a wife of his own is the farthest thing from his mind until he sees his brother, Finn, so blissfully happy with his new proxy bride, and it sparks a desire within his own soul to find a mate. The girl he might have been able to love, sadly, is already promised to someone else, so he turns down the same avenue his brother had taken - the matrimonial advertisements.
After multiple replies fail to generate any interest, however, he is about to chuck the whole idea...
Tired of living in an apartment all alone, Beth Ann Gilmore looks forward to having her own hearth, home, husband, and children, but when she finds herself unexpectedly jilted by Stanley, her longtime beau, all her dreams go up in smoke. Refusing to rest on her laurels, she ponders the fact that her best friend, Charise, found happiness through mail-order-bride notices - so why couldn’t she? For good measure, she visits a local marriage broker as well. Soon, however, circumstances take a drastic turn and in fear for her life, she wires her friends in Nebraska for help.
The return telegram contains a shocking idea. Can she go through with it? Should she? Could a man she only met once be her salvation...in more ways than one?
Beth knows it’s a gamble, but faced with no other choice, it’s a chance she can’t afford to pass up.
This is a clean, inspirational romance. The story contains themes of real life, but is suitable for all ages, as it contains no illicit sex or profanity.

The voice of Gregory Lioi is cast perfectly for historical romance. He has that slight twang, and a voice that just reminds me of the old west. I enjoyed his array of voices and will be interested to see him in the future.
Sam & Beth Ann!

After being strung along for three years, Beth Ann decides that maybe she should become a mail order bride. When things take a turn for the worse, she jumps at the chance to become a proxy bride and get out of a potentially dangerous situation. Will she and Sam be able to make their new marriage work, or will her past troubles catch up to her and destroy everything?
This was my first story by Linda Ellen, and I really enjoyed it. This book fit very well in the multi-author series. I look forward to seeing more from Ms. Ellen.
I’m not certain this was the right narrator for this book. Gregory Lioi did an acceptable job, but I didn’t care for how he presented the voices for the female characters. His male characters were great.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
