title: The Holiday Mail Order Bride
author: Morgan, Kit
description: Someone in Independence is sending off for mail-order brides and they’ve struck again! This time Julian Smythe is the culprit’s latest victim, and naturally, he hasn’t a clue. Throw in the antics of Mercy, Martha, Maude, and their newest partner in crime, Mahulda, and you’ve got enough chaos to drive any mail-order bride crazy. And that’s exactly what the four matrons do! Ellie Sampson came to Independence to get married, but no sooner does she get off the stage, she’s snatched up by the four and thrown into the position of a maid in the Vander household! Shocked to discover her husband-to-be had no idea she was coming, she’s even more shocked to discover she’s falling in love with not only him, but the town as well. But a secret she holds could bring everything tumbling down, and any chance at happiness would be gone in an instant. What should Ellie do?
