Christmas in the Abandoned Farmhouse

When Margaret Jameston's father passes away, her whole life changes. In one swift blow, she goes from the coddled, spoiled daughter of a doting father to a penniless pauper, entirely dependent on the charity of others. As she seeks to take control of her life again, employment proves impossible to find - and that's what leads her to the matrimonial agency, and ultimately to Shadow Gulch, Idaho.The agency matches her with a businessman named Benjamin Tupper. On paper, he looks as respectable as they come. In person, he's polite, genteel, devastatingly handsome - but he has a dark secret.As Margaret tries to unravel Benjamin's history and figure out whether she trusts him or not, she finds that becoming a Mail Order Bride is far more than she bargained for. With dining halls, disaster, and danger in the mix, will Benjamin prove too much for her? Or will she find an inner strength that comes from loving someone deeply?
