But when he tells her he’s marrying her off to a wealthy, but unethical, businessman twice her age, she is forced to flee. There’s nothing left but to start over somewhere new. When she answers an advert for a Mail Order Bride in Fort Riggins, Montana, she allows herself to hope she’s about to meet the man of her dreams. But Curtis Emerson, the man she’s agreed to marry, has no intention of marrying; indeed, he has no idea Edie exists. Thirteen-year-old Sophia Emerson has written the advert on behalf of her widowed father. With Sophia’s scheme cartwheeling out of control, Edie’s left to pick up the pieces of her shattered plans. Meanwhile, it’s all she can do to fight off her strong attraction for Curtis. Does Sophia’s outrageous plan have any chance of working out, or is it too much to hope for?
