This is the first book I have read by Amy Blakelear but it will not be the last one of her books I read.This book was an historical romance set mostly in Oregon.  It is the story of Ellie, who had lost all of her family to typhoid and was now an unpaid servant for her deceased brother’s wife in Boston.  Ellie's sister-in-law is not a very nice person and was forcing Ellie into a marriage with a very unsavory character.  To avoid the marriage Ellie places an advertisement in a national newspaper as a live-in housekeeper.Ellie’s advertisement is answered by the Grandmother of Jared, a rancher in Oregon.  Jared’s Grammy’s eyesight is failing and she thought she was ordering a mail order bride for her grandson for his birthday.So as not to spoil it for anyone else I will refrain from saying anything more about the story but I will say it was one of the most enjoyable books I have read in a long time and I had a very hard time putting it down.
