Tragedy has struck the Ellis sisters.
While they’re father has fallen victim to the national financial panic, their mother has fled to a sanitorium, leaving the three sisters to fend for themselves. Minnie, Clara and Hazel come from a life of privilege and are forced to make the painful decision to leave their home in Boston behind and head West.
When Minnie comes up with a plan that will fix everything, her sisters reluctantly agree. They will become Mail Order Brides and head West to Colorado.
The fairy-tale doesn’t end there. When Minnie arrives, a devastating snowstorm strikes, and Gavin Clifford, her husband-to-be, tells her that can’t marry her. Minnie, a girl of spirit, tells him that she traveled all this way to be his wife and he’s a coward if he doesn’t marry her. Stung by her accusation, Gavin relents and marries her, even though he doesn’t know how he’ll manage to keep his land.
But Minnie’s indomitable strength won’t let him give up and she arranges for him to receive a loan so that he can switch from cattle to sheep to make a living. As the pair move forward in their venture, falling in love along the way, Minnie’s two sisters come to Colorado to meet their husbands. But as Christmas approaches, Minnie finds her spirits low as she yearns for the holiday celebration that was familiar to her in the past.
Her husband, her sisters, and her brothers-in-law join forces to make Minnie’s Colorado Christmas one that she’ll treasure—right down to the cranberries on the Christmas tree!
