The Billionaire Widow's Bride
A mail order bride ditched at the station, a billionaire widow who is bitter with life and his three young daughters who are craving motherly love.
Fiona Brown is giddy with joy as she waits for her beloved to pick her up at Peak's Point train depot. Their new home awaits; a small farm that she and Donald Newton have bought together.
But the hours crawl by and with each hour that passes her dreams slip further away. Fiona has been conned, not just out of her money but out of the family life she had envisioned.
Help comes in the form of a position at the Burk estate. Derek Burk is a moody and frightening man. His daughters, though, are a joy and Fiona grows close to them.
Then, unexpectedly and slowly, she starts seeing another side of Derek Burk, a gentle side. Fiona starts falling in love with him. But he is the master of the house and she just a housekeeper... Will he love her back?
NOTE: This book includes 5 bonus stories!
AUTHOR’S NOTE: This is a 56-page stand-alone story with an HEA, so no cliff-hangers.

This book is actually many books, which at first was a delight. However, many of the stories are very repetitive, with different names. Poor mistreated girl meets handsome rich man who vows to take care of her unborn child that she was unaware of carrying. Proofreading is also poorly done. In one story, the baby in his crib "bowling" instead of bawling. In another, the missing girl's bag is orange and yellow, but 2 pages over, it is red and white. The husband that left was Daniel, but later is called Samuel. Her sister in law's cousins are introduced as her children's uncle's brothers, which makes them her brothers, and she married one of them! Repetitive story lines, poor proofreading, best story was about The Earl and Rachel.

Great collection of short stories
This was a wonderful collection of short stories. I did not remember that this book was more than one story, but I enjoyed reading each and everyone.

Inspiring
What an inspiration to persevere with your life when you have no family. I loved how Fiona kept an open heart.

Sweet Story
All of Faith Crawford's books are sweet and uplifting. She is a good author. Her stories are always interesting and the characters are entertaining.
