This is the third book I have read in this series, and it did not disappoint. Lily Watkins escapes Boston and an unwanted marriage planned by her parents to a man who had done an outrage to her. She quickly decided to become a mail-order bride out of desperation. Jake Morgan, the man she was to marry in Montana had experienced one marriage that had left him angry and untrusting. So, when Lily is married to him and within weeks realizes that she is "with child" by the man who had attacked her three months earlier in Boston, Jake could not understand and became irate with her. But, in the end the family doctor gave advice that Jake heeded. In the meantime the new doc in town who was as bad as the man she had left in Boston, tried to take her life out of jealousy and rage was killed by the doctor friend who was taking care of Lily.There are many details in this novel, some which seem at bit out of place such as the return of the first wife. But, overall it is good reading.
