Though I’ve always enjoyed watching Westerns, this book was my first experience of reading a Mail Order Bride romance, and I LOVED it! This book starts immediately in the action with seven-year-old Case and his parents weathering natural disaster. It’s clear the Ms. Carlton did her research. The book is vividly written, and I found myself really experiencing life in Montana through all five senses. As this gentle love story unfolded, Case and Carrie’s developing relationship captivated my interest. The characters are well round and grounded in their historical period and setting, and the letters the couple exchanged before meeting really deepened my understanding of them both. Ultimately, this is a story of overcoming tragedy and finding a second chance through love. Great read! Can't wait to get the next book!
