No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Miss Charlotte Kennedy, a southern belle from Georgia, has been waiting for her fiancΓ©, Ryan Hill, to return from the Civil War since it ended three years ago. Nothing is the same since he enlisted, promising to return.
When her cousin, Kitty Gardner, writes to her about a mail-order bride agency in Ottertail County, Minnesota, Charlotte writes to the proprietress, Miss Ella Milton, hoping she might be able to find her a suitable match. She doesn't expect her heart to stop aching for Ryan, but moving forward with her life has become more appealing than the devastation of the war.
The last thing Lottie expects is for Ella Milton to match her to Captain Caleb Brooks, a handsome Yankee hero who sweeps her off her feet right from the start. He doesn't expect her to be so beautiful, and he certainly doesn't expect her to turn his life upside-down.
When Ryan, the handsome young Master of Bally-Belle Plantation, turns up on the scene in Pelican Rapids alive, suffering from a severe case of Soldier's Heart and searching for his fiancΓ©e, Caleb may have to enlist the help of some unlikely company to bring his bride safely home again.****
