When Essie Martin sees a mail-order bride ad that would take her to the same tiny town where her best friend Laurie now lives, it's impossible to resist. Her sister and toddler nephew don't need her as much as they did when she moved in to help, and she's tired of living Beth's life instead of her own.
A mail-order bride seems Deputy Matthew Cooper's best option after a run of disappointing first impressions with ladies thanks to his amputated arm. Hoping letters will give her the chance to get to know him before meeting face to face, he doesn't expect to fall head over heels within the first few letters.
Though traveling West risks heartbreak and danger, can Matt and Essie turn their pen pal romance into true love?
