Travel to Victorian America in 1890 with award winning and bestselling western romance author Caroline Clemmons for a humorous novel about two people destined for one another after a turbulent getting acquainted period. This book is sweet and suitable for readers over 18.
After a fire destroys the factory where Patience Eaton worked followed by a succession of job failures, she travels from Massachusetts to Washington to marry the man her father chose via a matchmaker. While Andrew Kincaid appears to be a very nice man, he’s older than her father’s and not someone she wants to marry. Her prospective groom places her in a respectable boarding house and agrees to give her a job in the office of his commercial apple orchard so she can learn about his life and business. But working alongside her handsome future stepson presents unexpected complications.
Two years ago, an unjust accusation ruined Stone Kincaid’s chance at happiness. Now he concentrates all his energy on building the family business. When he meets his prospective stepmother, he’s angry that his father cares so little for his mother’s memory that he sent for a mail-order bride younger than Stone. He believes Patience to be interested only in his father’s fortune. Stone plans to keep an eye on the attractive woman who’s slated to become his stepmother.
Can two people working at cross purposes arrive at a compromise?

Another Excellent Story!

Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2016

This sure was a twister! How sweet of Andrew and his dead wife's best friend to arrange to have a mail order bride come with the supposed idea of marrying Andrew, when the planned for his son Stone to marry Patience all along.

I suspected it because never once did Andrew say she is to be my wife, what he said was she will be a Kincaid soon. I loved how it all played out.

The surprise was that Patience's family moved to live near her, and wow she had twin boys already and a brand new baby girl was born the day her sister Mercy and her husband and son arrived to spend the holidays with her and her family.

A very beautiful story, I loved it. These American Mail Order Brides series are fantastic! Thank you for writing this one Caroline.

Clean storyline, needs editing...

I think this story is my first one by Caroline Clemmons. I enjoyed it and hoped for the the outcome. I was not disappointed. I do wish the story was edited for typos and left out words. I had to re-read many sentences to figure out what was being said because a sentence was started and changed or words were left out. I enjoyed the excerpt for more of Ms. Clemmons' stories and plan to read some of them. This romance story is cleanly written. Do work on the editing and correcting of typos, please.

Charming and Sweet Story

Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2016

Wonderful mail order bride story, so charming and sweet. Cute twist on a universal theme, too, having the bride come out to be married to someone else. Nice plot that was interwoven with the mail order bride aspect. A hero and heroine that you could definitely cheer on to their happily-ever-after moment. I enjoyed this book a lot, especially the characterizations and the descriptions of the settings. The secondary love story with the mature couple was an added bonus. If you like historical westerns and mail order bride stories, this one is a must read!

Romance, Clever Imagination and Laugher.

Just loved this book. The characters are developed and described in detail to give a visual reality. Watching a romance and deep love for both Patience and Stone unfold, blessed my heart. Patience is a woman after my own personality. She speaks her mind, yet bears no malice. Stone hides his heart behind a shroud of hurtful gossip for which Patience is wise enough to understand. There are many enjoyable happenings and plenty of laughs within this story. One of the best love stories I have read in a long time.

Patience was good in every way. She tried to be on her best behavior even when Stone tried his best to make her mad. Andrew took matters in his own hand. He want his son happy so he took it to find his son a bride. This is a right make wrong feel good story. You can't help but feel good after reading it.
