Eveline The Poor & Her Rancher James: A Mail Order Bride Romance
By

Synopsis: An English woman fallen on hard times decides to travel to America and her soon to be husband, but along the way there are many hazards including a life-changing train journey.
It was only her second night aboard the SS Brittanic, and already, Eveline had grown weary of being locked in the tight quarters of her assigned cabin in the stern of the ship. Still, she reflected that steam ship travel had cut the journey in half, and the Brittanic was known for being among the fastest steam liners on the ocean. Her journey would be a relatively short one at just over two weeks. She considered herself fortunate to have money in her pocket and warm clothes on her back without tears and tatters of over-wear. She hoped to be able to thank her sponsor appropriately once they met.
Eveline read and reread her second and final contact from James Chesterfield. Letters seemed to take such a long time to reach England from California. This particular letter was written on rather thin parchment in hurried, loopy scrawl. It began with her expected departure date. Below that, in business-like tone, he enumerated how the enclosed money was to be spent. The first amount was to purchase her passage aboard the SS Brittanic from Liverpool to New York.
The second amount was for her to purchase garments and a trunk suitable to a lady of some stature who was to be traveling, but not so expensive as to draw unwanted attention. Finally, he had sent a reserve of funds to pay her passage from New York to California via rail. She read and reread his words. Short and to the point, they were. There was little indication of his character aside from the fact that he had found gold in California and was willing to spend it for her comfortable passage.
Chesterfield had also sent money for her to hire a companion maid for her journey. Eveline had scoffed at the idea, but did not wish to seem ungrateful for the opportunity awarded her. She decided to offer her childhood friend, Genevieve the shared opportunity for paid passage to America. Genevieve, Gen in short, was currently fussing over Eveline’s shoddy packing job.
An overcoat seemed to be missing in the large, leather trunk, and the air on the ocean became brisk at night. She was taking her new job quite seriously. As Eveline’s oldest and most loyal friend, she hoped to repay many kindnesses from over the years by being the best maidservant ever to accompany a lady on a journey.
Oh, Evie, I need to repack everything now. Why on earth would you pack your coat in the bottom of the trunk?
Gen whined with an overdramatic sigh, yet she smiled as she held the coat up for Eve to put her
