With most men fighting in the Civil War or now living in the west, eligible men are hard to find.  So Eliza and her mentally handicapped sister Maggie pick men from a catalouge and head to San Fransisco to marry them.  Eliza is concerned that Maggie's fiance is too old for her, and Eliza has her doubts about her own fiance as well.  Is Garret telling the truth about his imprisonment in Alcatraz?  Is he still a spy?  Eliza can't help but feel that she and Garret aren't meant to be.  Meanwhile, the irritating sheriff Matt Weston has been catching her eye.  But he couldn't possibly care for her that way, could he?This was a sweet story.  I especially loved Maggie's character, she was always so positive and had the most beautiful and heartwarming outlook on the world.  I would definitely recommend this novella.
