    About this ebook

    Emma wants to get away from her past. Her only shot is to answer an advertisement for a mail order bride but she really doesn't want a husband. Her plan is to steal Joel's money but after a few outings to his church her conscience gets to her and she wants to repay him for the costs of her train ticket. His charm sneaks up on her and she begins to fall for him, taken in by his strong determination to win his heart. But then her past catches up to her she struggles desperately to hang on the one thing she thought she didn't want...a husband.
