Makes you think
A short mail-order bride story that makes you think. This story is not a feel-good candy fix for the afternoon. It is so much more.So grab a cup of chocolate. A fluffy, soft blanket and settle down for a memorable read with likable characters. I would love to see this story expanded in a full-blown novel instead of the short read that it provided.The story will catch you up and leave you wanting more—in a good way. [Not a cliff-hanger.]

What is a marriage made up of?
This is a sweet and delightful story about Kathleen. Her parents have died, and she has no money. Her aunt is going to take her younger sister while she becomes a mail order bride. She travels to Montana to meet her husband to be, Tristan shortly before Christmas. They must learn to overcome obstacles together and to trust one another putting the past behind. I really enjoyed this wonderful reminder of what marriage can be when we put our hearts into making it the best for the both of us.

Lonely Katie
This a warm and tender tale of woman trying to adapt to a life that is rather solitary and lonely. Her husband does not initially help because he is not sure of how to help her and goes about his day as if she is not there. Tristan's mother is a work of disparity and whatever anger lays in her heart needs love. The only problem with this story is that it doesn't deal with Tristan's mother's anger.

3.5 Stars for a Sweet, clean romance
This story is a nice romance that quietly, gently unfolds in a realistic way. I would give it 4 stars but, it is short and the characters and settings weren't developed as well as a good, longer story would have done. I enjoyed Emma Morgan's short novel and will read more of her offerings. I recommend this book.

Good book
This was a good book to read and I could even feel the cold of winter winds and snow that the author told about..I would have liked the story to be a little bit longer and tell about the 2 sisters meeting..but still a good read.

Emotional
It is short, but has depth of feelings. Most of us have had to suffer changes that didn't go ad expected. In this story, at least it looks like things will be good in the end. Warmth and "home" can come in many guises. A nice afternoon read.
