Story
Nellie Williams is tired of the mundane, everyday sort of life she leads in Middleburg, Virginia. She longs for adventure, excitement, and true love—but she stands little chance of finding any of it if she stays put at home. When her cousin tells her about matrimonial agencies, her imagination takes flight at once. She can just see it now—being matched with a handsome cowboy in the Wild West, raising children, fighting off outlaws. But as she starts her journey toward the future, the fulfillment of her dreams is far more than she bargained for.

Story
Iris James has every reason to run away from home. Living in her uncle’s cold, loveless household has stripped her of everything – including her hope for the future. When a matrimonial agency matches her up with a widower in Mountain Pass, Oregon, she’s only too glad to accept. Though the challenge of stepping into a dead woman’s shoes and becoming a wife and mother all at once will be difficult, she can’t believe it could be any worse than staying in Philadelphia. But there’s far more to the story than she expects – her new husband is haunted by the ghosts of his tragic past.
