Synopsis: Mail Order Bride: Caroline & Asa, Her Stranger On A Train, is about a mail order bride headed for California, and a man she has never met, to marry him and start a new life out west. When she meets a charming and handsome lawyer who was fired from his firm and is now headed there too, she is torn between the duty to her parents to marry who they chose for her, and a burgeoning respect then love for Asa, her stranger on a train. She turns to her bible for answers but time is short, so will she find what she’s seeking before they both step off the train and disappear into the crowd forever?
Prepare to disembark!
the attendant shouted, startling Caroline awake. Disembark? She blinked a couple of times, rubbing her eyes and trying to shake off the sleep that had snuck up on her with the repetitive, rhythmic clatter of the tracks.

she read, silently mouthing each word like a heartfelt prayer.
Above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. Be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
Caroline liked that. Being kind was as easy as putting on the cloak she threw around her shoulders. All you had to do was be conscious of it and soon it would become like a second skin. With outward kindness, soon Christ would call a person’s soul home.
Standing up and stretching her stiff legs and back, Caroline reached up for her suitcase, stowed on a rack above the train’s benches. It had shifted during the journey, but she could get it if she just reached a little farther.
She gasped as a strong grip seized both her hand and the handle of the suitcase,
