Acerca de esta escucha
Gabe Douglass is the sheriff of Rutger Creek, Arkansas, and the father of seven-year-old Eva. The death of his wife signaled the end of his love life. There is no room in his heart for anyone new. But when Eva wants a mommy for her birthday, Gabe’s mother goes behind his back and orders a mail order bride for him.
Lucinda Aldridge’s world has turned upside down. The beautiful socialite from Boston was in a carriage accident, and her injuries leave her lame and barren. Her fiancé can’t deal with the situation and calls off their wedding. Now, Lucinda’s family pities and pampers her, not allowing her any freedom at all. She can’t stand her luxurious prison any longer. When she overhears the maids discussing becoming mail order brides, it gives Lucinda an idea.
Now, Lucinda is in Rutger Creek and discovers Gabe didn’t invite her there, at all. Should she stay on in the position of housekeeper and nanny he offered, or should she return to Boston defeated?
Finally, it’s the point of a gun that reveals their true feelings.

When Elan Beauregard’s best friend brings him a mail order bride to be his fiancée, Elan is outraged. Yet, he cannot very well send the woman away, so she temporarily settles into his household. Elan is surprised when his eight-year-old foster daughter, Kate, bonds with the lovely stranger quickly. Mail order bride Juliana Wills is mortified to discover she is supposed to marry a hard-bitten man who clearly does not like her. She is drawn to his little girl, however, and easily communicates with Kate who is deaf. But after a difficult two weeks, Juliana packs her things and leaves.
