Weary of the burden of caring for her younger siblings, and eager for a new life, Abby Sanders accepts an offer to travel west as a Mail Order Bride. She dreams of a quiet, peaceful life away from the noise and chaos of her family, a place where she can follow her own thoughts at her own pace.

So when John Clinton, her husband to be, meets her at the station with a small child in tow, she's ready to back right out of their deal. She didn't expect this ready-made family, but she finds herself growing to care for them, despite her misgivings. And when it seems that the child might be taken away from them, she's finds herself fighting to keep him - and her wonderful new life.

Sweet romance!

Another mail order bride for me to listen to! I enjoy these books when I need a nice, easy book to listen to. Abby has been taking car of her younger siblings, but decides to become a mail order bride, hoping to move into a quiet and peaceful relationship with her new husband. When she first meets him, he is carrying a baby. Now Abby isn't sure that she hasn't jumped from the frying pan into the fire! Faith Johnson gives this story an interesting plot with a few twists and turns to keep us wanting to listen to find out what happens. Meghan Kelly again gives us the voices of the characters just as we expect them to be. She is a very talented narrator.
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

Abby

Abby was kind of a cold fish towards the baby until he became ill. How could she have such a cold heart towards a baby??? She did get better in time. but that wsy iff putting to me. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

Mail Order Bride

This was a good clean story of a young girl heading out in to the unknown as a mail order bride. She was so lucky to find a wonderful man, with a baby. The baby was not part of the original agreement, but cute babies grow on you fast.

Clean Christian Mail Order tale

A clean Christian male order take with an infant size twist.

Weary of the burden of caring for her younger siblings, and eager for a new life, Abby Sanders accepts an offer to travel west as a Mail Order Bride. She dreams of a quiet, peaceful life—away from the noise and chaos of her family, a place where she can follow her own thoughts at her own pace.

So when John Clinton, her husband to be, meets her at the station with a small child in tow, she’s ready to back right out of their deal. She didn’t expect this ready-made family, but she finds herself growing to care for them, despite her misgivings. And when it seems that the child might be taken away from them, she’s finds herself fighting to keep him—and her wonderful new life.

Very Sweet Story!

This is a short and sweet Mail Order Bride story with the added bonus of learning to love a baby as well as a man.
It was nicely written, a pleasure to listen to Meghan Kelly tell it to us and I enjoyed it very much.
