Publisher's summary

Running away from the past leads back to it, eventually.

Fiona jumps on a train heading west to escape her traumatic past. Through an exchange with a woman on the train she ends up in Hays explaining to Sam Jordan why his mail order bride isn't going to arrive. She is invited to stay with his family where a plot develops in her mind: if she marries her name will change and the law wouldn't find her. Which man should she try to marry, Sam or his minister brother Martin? Events occur that select the man for her. What if he discovers her past? Or, what if she discovers his?

Quick clean western romance

I really enjoyed this short novel :-) Barbara Goss has a lot of good mail order bride romances- and while this is probably not my very favorite it was a good quick listen. I liked the characters, and I appreciated the way that they changed and grew throughout the story. I also appreciated the historical details thrown in Which added more depth to the story. I will definitely listen to more of her mail order romances!

Falling in Love

I loved the book Looking For Love. The author and narrator both did a great job in writing and telling the story. Feona Simson grew up in an orphanage .At eighteen she had to get a job She worked as a housemaid. Her employer tried to rape her so she fleded. This is a good clean read and I was given a copy for an honest review. I don't want to give anything away but I suggest you get th e book.

Love this series!

Listening to a book, sometimes it is easy to get distracted, rewind and listen again. This book was is so easy to listen to and the story so entertaining, you don't miss a thing first time around. Barbara Goss has given the mail order bride genre a slight twist with the misdeliveries, and Fiona Sullivan is definitely misdelivered. After fleeing her home in Boston, she boards a train, befriending a woman who is supposed to be meeting Sam,her groom to be. This never happens, and the groom's information is given to Fiona. Never intending to stay, Fiona stops in Hayes and is going to let the Sam know that he will not be getting married. So the story begins. This family Fiona meets, with Addie, Sam's mom and Martin, Sam's brother are warm and inviting. Sam, not so much, so the question comes down to, will Sam and Fiona fall in love? Will Fiona's past get in her way of happiness? Will Sam's? Love the way this story plays out, with all it's loving banter, jealous lovers, and murder mystery.

Keeping those earbuds in is the smooth, baritone voice of Tom Jordan. Relatively new to the scene for me, Tom is able to easily distinguish between characters and create a world you fall into. His voice is pure romance.

Great book!

Fiona is running away from a terrible situation where she does the unthinkable. Her only option is to go west and to get lost in a new city and new life. She changes her life and now needs to change her name to fully escape.

Sam is a man who wants to love and be loved so he orders a mail order bride only to be told by another woman that his bride will not be coming. His family sees that this pretty messenger needs a safe place to start a new life, but does he know about all of her past?

Fiona and Sam both have secrets and pasts that will ultimately catch up to them. Will those secrets ruin both lives and the budding love that is starting to form? Will they learn to trust in each other and stand together or walk away?

Barb does another great job in her storytelling! Tom Jordan's narration brings Barb's story to life! I enjoyed this book very much and look forward to the next book!

Running from what?


This story centers around the female lead, Fiona, and the trouble that she has trailing her.

She finds herself in a new town and a "difficult" choice to make.

The characters were well written and the story line had a twist making it an enjoyable read.

I'm looking forward to the next book in this series.

Tom Jordan did well with the narration.

A wonderful story.

This is my first book by Ms
Goss, and what a nice surprise . I truly enjoy Historical Novels and Ms. Goss has done an excellent job at keeping the reader hooked until the end. I am now following her and looking forward to reading more of her books.
