Mail Order Romance

When Anne Benning a mail order bride steps off the train in tiny Eckville, in the American Frontier West, to meet a man she only knows through postal correspondence and who has proposed to marry her, she enters a live fire fight and a long-simmering feud that threatens to engulf her in trouble. Anne finds herself enmeshed in an emotional roller-coaster of self-discovery, passionate intrigue, and a devastating mystery that lead her to her ultimate revelation about the meaning and purpose of her life.

Three years after their marriage, Benjamin and Annie Moran come home soaked and exhausted after a near-fatal encounter with a flash flood. After narrowly saving their cattle and sheep herd from certain death, they collapse into their bed under their bearskin, only to be abruptly awaken in the pre-dawn hours of the next morning by loud pounding on their door. A man’s voice alternatively demands and pleads for aid for himself and his son after being stranded in the storm.
