Author: Megan Besing 

Publisher: Love Inspired Historical 

Release Date: April 26, 2022 

Genre: Inspirational Historical Romance 

A mail-order mistake… 

Or a made-to-be match? 

When Della Mae Wagner’s train arrives in Missouri, she’s shocked to find that the couple who hired her don’t just want a teacher for their grandsons but a wife for their son! After a broken engagement, marriage is not in Della’s plans. And Hank Lamson isn’t pleased—with his parents, with his unexpected guest or with Della’s unfairly appealing smile. But his plans to send her packing are foiled as his family comes to love her…and he feels the walls around his wounded heart start to fall.

EXCERPT

Della straightened her back at Mr. Lamson’s tone. So much for an ally amongst the confusion. Of course, she wasn’t looking for a husband any more than this man sought a wife, yet she couldn’t help but relive the sting of Tom’s rejection all over again. “I’m not here to apply to be your wife. Nor to be someone you court.”

Alice released a small gasp and Mr. Lamson crossed his arms as if he didn’t believe her, either. “You’re not?”

Mercy sakes. Did women fall at his feet so often he was surprised that anyone didn’t wish to be his wife? What kind of women lived in Missouri?

MY REVIEW

The story is set in Missouri in 1889. Della answers an ad for what she thought was a teaching position. Instead, Hank's parents had hoped she would be his mail-order bride. Hank wasn't ready to marry. His wife died, leaving him with three young sons and no desire to wed again. On a trial basis as a teacher, they both agreed she would stay.

The story is inspirational and has a lot of hardships, learning to have a new relationship and lots of forgiveness. What starts as a teaching position turns out to be much more but it doesn't come easy. Fear and a hardened heart toward the Lord make things more difficult.

Even though the story has some sad circumstances, it also has some humorous and loving instances. I was hooked from the beginning and couldn't put it down. I highly recommend it.

I received a complimentary copy of the book and a positive review is not required. All opinions are my own.
