Sweet Little Dreams
Mail Order Brides: 3 Book Box Set
Description:... True Love and True Adventure in three exciting, romantic short stories of the Western Frontier!
How Sweet the Sound - Cleve and Mary are just 7 years old and living at a Pittsburgh orphanage, when they say "I do" to each other, at a make-believe wedding. And they mean it, and what's more, believe themselves married in the eyes of the Lord.
A year later, both are left heartbroken - Cleave is torn from Mary's arms and taken away, adopted by a family from Montana.
Ten long years pass, and Cleve is too afraid even to love, his losses having hardened his heart. But Mary too has her problems - her arm has been crushed in a mangler, and she's been cast out into the street, almost penniless, to fend for herself.
When Mary is shown a letter from a man who seeks a mail order bride, and sees that the man's name is Cleve, she knows it's a sign from the Lord - and that whether it's her Cleve or not, she knows she must go to the man.
But Mary will need every bit of her faith to travel the path God has laid before her.
Little White Lies - Martha Weaver craves adventure, but when she and her sister go West to marry two brothers, they soon see they've bitten off more adventure than they can chew!
Martha's sister Ellen is drawn to the kind Preacher traveling along with them, but the problem is - at least in a practical sense - the Preacher's of no use at all.
After the driver of their stagecoach dies, it's all up to Martha to get them the rest of the way - only trouble is, she's worked out how to get the horses running good and fast, but has no idea how to stop!
When Montana rancher Frank Cassidy sees Martha come tearing past, her long hair flying behind in the wind, he just knows she's the right girl for him. But Frank's been telling some Little White Lies - and they just might turn out to be his undoing, and everyone else's as well.
Sarah's Dream - English rose Sarah Cumberbatch receives an ultimatum from her parents - marry Lord Foppington's lazy, womanizing, good-for-nothing son, or be thrown into the street, penniless. Eager for adventure, she answers a newspaper advertisement from a rich Montana rancher, and travels across the high seas to meet him. Sarah soon has to deal with drunks, a coach accident, racial hatred, a hungry bear, wild men taking the law into their own hands, and more heartbreak than she ever expected.
Will jealousy and racial hatred rob Sarah of her chance of happiness? Or might she find true love and finally, a real sense of family in the Wild, Wild West?
