Margaret Sinclair is a fiery, free-spirited woman who longs to break away from Boston life to marry a handsome man in the West.

One day, they decide to peruse the mail order bride advertisements in the newspaper, and Margaret is drawn to an ad placed by the town doctor in Missoula Mills, Montana.
Dr. Stephen Wyatt is a kind and gentle man who has spent his life caring for patients, but he is lonely and longs for a wife to keep him company and give his life an even greater sense of purpose. When Margaret comes to him, it is as if both of their dreams have become true.
She begins to train as a nurse at the nearby orphanage and loves what she does, but one day disaster strikes. Many of the children become deathly ill, and it is not long before Margaret falls ill as well.

Quick reads, all sweet
I believe my favorite story in this book was the last one. Olivia needed to fulfill her sense of adventure, and what better way than to become a mail order bride to Jackson. She was welcomed by his family of brothers and their wives and children, but there was a sense of unease about him that Olivia could not put her finger on to understand. Had he changed his mind about marrying her? Was she not what he wanted/needed in a wife? Understanding that they needed to talk before the wedding, she undertook to engage Jackson in a conversation. The story goes on, but the ending is one you'll need to read for yourself, as well as the many other mail order brides' stories in this book
I received this book from Goodreads and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This book is a boxed set of many mail order bride stories. They are quite different from each other and are clean romances. Since the publishing company chose the bonus stories, I don’t know the authors, but I loved all of the bonus books and Margaret’s Journey.
