Helen Ashby didn't necessarily want to become a mail-order bride, but when she sees her friend Wynonna heading for sure disaster, she knows she must do something to help. After all, Wynonna likely doesn't understand what she's getting herself into with her highly suspicious matchmaker, and she could use Helen's guidance.
When Helen realizes that she herself has nowhere to go, she resigns herself to a similar fate, reasoning that she can always get a job if the first meeting with her prospective groom doesn't go well. And it doesn't go well at all . . . instead of being greeted at the end of her journey by a wealthy ranch owner, she's met by a not-so-wealthy handyman.
Zeke Turner didn't necessarily want to send for a mail-order bride, but his boss's wife is in a family way, and she'll need lady friends to give her a hand when her time comes. When he sees Helen Ashby for the first time, though, he's smitten immediately, and it doesn't matter that she thinks she was brought out there on false pretenses - he wants to marry her no matter what. The trick now will be figuring out how to communicate - and how to work together through a challenge neither of them could have anticipated.
Genre: Historical Romance
