About this listen
Amelia Turner is tired of living her boring, pampered life. She craves adventure and a new life out West. Ben Thompson is still grieving the loss of his wife, but he knows their son needs a mother, so with reluctance, he places an advert for a Mail Order Bride. He is immediately matched with Amelia.
When Amelia arrives in Montana, their first meeting does not go well. Both fear they have made the wrong decision. This is not the adventure Amelia expected, nor is it the smooth transition Ben wanted. Not willing to give up hope, they stubbornly cling to the possibility of falling in love—praying no one will be disappointed.

When Elan Beauregard’s best friend brings him a mail order bride to be his fiancée, Elan is outraged. Yet, he cannot very well send the woman away, so she temporarily settles into his household. Elan is surprised when his eight-year-old foster daughter, Kate, bonds with the lovely stranger quickly. Mail order bride Juliana Wills is mortified to discover she is supposed to marry a hard-bitten man who clearly does not like her. She is drawn to his little girl, however, and easily communicates with Kate who is deaf. But after a difficult two weeks, Juliana packs her things and leaves.

Lana Fleming’s sister has vanished from the set of TV’s hottest show, and no one seems to care. Desperate for answers, Lana sneaks in as an extra, only to get stranded with Griffin Hart, an A-list action star with a reputation for good abs and bad decisions. Though Griffin didn’t expect to be cast as a librarian’s sidekick in a real-life thriller, he’s weirdly into it—and into her. Even more unsettling—she sees right through his playboy persona. But their meet-cute soon turns deadly when they uncover a Hollywood scandal for the ages.

Liv’s happy with life in her thirties. She has two cats, one BFF, and no boyfriend, which is just how she likes it. Plus, she loves working at a not-for-profit software company where she can be her authentically autistic self. This is her happy ever after. But when her beloved firm merges with a repulsive rival, Liv finds herself competing with her sort-of-ex for the top job. Sure, Finn had been Liv’s best friend, with his nerdy good looks and their shared love of Tolkien, but there was that one night, their song, and … well, she doesn’t like to talk about it.

Great!
It is always a delight to see how things used to be for people back in the day. This was a fun story. Especially a lady from the city trying to cope with the country way of living.
The narrator did a good job. I liked her accent.
