Ruth McCann has a plan for her future. She’ll marry, settle down in her hometown of Stowe, Vermont, and raise a family with the man her father picked out for her. Though she doesn’t love Peter Stillarch, she’s resigned to the life laid out in front of her. Some people, she knows, never find true love.. Everything changes when her husband-to-be dies in an accident. Suddenly, Ruth finds herself without any prospects and with no future at all.. At her father’s urging, she signs up to be a Mail Order Bride and is matched with Noah Walker in Mine’s Place, Colorado. But not everything at Walker Ranch is as it seems. The family welcomes her with open arms, but Noah is taciturn and silent. Is he keeping a secret from her? If only Noah were as open and affectionate as his younger brother Liam…. With her wedding approaching, Ruth finds herself faced with a choice: pour her heart into the marriage of convenience she’s agreed to…or hold out for a love that may never be.
