Summary

Jessie Kincaid doesn't plan to follow in his three older brothers' footsteps, which seems to include being bachelors. There might be twice as many men as women in their town, but there are still other ways to go about finding, or competing, for a wife.

Jessie begins writing Sarah Engle in hopes that she will become his mail order bride. Even though there are miles between them, he feels connected to her. He sends her money, along with a stage coach ticket, to come see him so that they can be married.

Not everyone is happy with their decision to wed. When the preacher said, till death do you part, did he mean literally? Or can a mail order bride and her groom truly have a happily ever after ending?

Mail Order Brides series:

  • Jessie's Bride
  • Montana's Bride

Simple, fictional novel

Would you listen to Mail Order Brides: Jessie's Bride again? Why?

Not really, since it's a novel which you only really need to hear once and because it's rare for me to listen to the same thing again, read a certain book twice, watch a film for the second time... That's just me, and doesn't reflect the nature of this audio book.

Who was your favorite character and why?

This is a tough question, with the novel being so short I don't think I know any of the characters that well. But when it comes right down to it, I'll say Marshall because of the way he looks after his younger brother.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

The female voice. But I'll give him credit since Sarah cried an awful lot, so it must have been difficult.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I suppose so, since I completed it relatively quickly. I thank the author for a short, simple story.
