Publisher's Summary

Greta Nilsson's trip west to save her ailing little sister, Astrid, could not have gone more wrong. First, bandits hold up her stagecoach, stealing all her money. Then, upon arriving in Fairplay, Colorado, she learns the man she was betrothed to as a mail-order bride has died. Homeless, penniless, and jobless, Greta and her sister are worse off than when they started.

Wyatt McQuaid is struggling to get his new ranch up and running and is in town to purchase cattle when the mayor proposes the most unlikely of bargains. He'll invest in a herd of cattle for Wyatt's ranch if Wyatt agrees to help the town become more respectable by marrying and starting a family. And the mayor, who has promised to try to help Greta, has just the candidate in mind for Wyatt to marry.

Good bones, frustrating moments average narrator

I loved the characters and the story had good basics but some frustrating moments where just felt like yelling at them or something. though I have read much more worse frustrating books so thank you for making tolerable because while I wanted to yell some sense into them I didn't want to pull my hair out like in some books or in my opinion. I really liked the theme and essence of the story. wasn't a huge fan of the narrator but hey it was tolerable. looking forward to finishing the series.

An average love story

It was well read and the story was ok, But all that frustration and angst, coming together then backing off over and over like they never learn, is annoying. As far as Christian I heard God mumbled a few times, they certainly never did His will but asked Him to fit in with what they wanted to do: what? And seriously no man alive would ever be able to handle THAT level of frustration.
Sorry.
