A Marriage Mishap Creates an Awkward Love Triangle in this Silver Mining Town
Looking forward to a quiet life and a full stomach, mail-order bride Rebecca Rice is pleased to marry her shopkeeper intended, Mr. Fordham, until the justice of the peace calls him Thaddeus, not Theodore—proceeded by the title Deputy.
Is it possible to marry the wrong man?
When the newlyweds realize they’ve married the wrong partners with similar names, an annulment seems in order—and fast, since Rebecca’s true intended is impatient to claim her as his own, not to mention Rebecca would never marry a lawman like her father. But when the legalities take longer than expected, Rebecca wonders if Tad wasn’t the right husband for her all along. . . .

I thought that this was a wonderful, romantic historical fiction. At one
point in the book the author mentions the stone, Jasper. The outside of the
stone was dingy and not so pretty, but the inside was glorious. She relates
this to people. This reminds me of Scripture, man looks at the outward
appearance but God looks at the heart. Another part I loved in the book was
when she talked about grace. The lead lady extends medical help to a
"bad" guy in need. "Because I don't think the Lord is upset that
I tended a man who didn't deserve it. That's what grace is. Who would I be if I
don't extend some myself?". And the last quote I'll leave you with,
"What had his mother said about her squabbles with Pa?. Better to let some
steam out of the kettle than get burned when things boil over.". With
these quotes and many more, this author paints a great story with words. You'll
want to check this one out!!
I received this book in exchange for my honest review.
Thanks for the lovely review! I'm so glad you enjoyed the book. :)
