In this second book, “Ellen’s Doubt,” bestselling author Jenny Creek Tanner continues with the story of Ellen Mills as she and her mother receive terrible news.

Meet Ellen Mills. . .

Ellen and her mother have been anxiously been awaiting word from their father and husband, but the letter she held in her hand brought news that left her pale and weak-kneed. She handed the letter to her mother and walked away.

Everything would change now. Everything, and yet nothing all at the same time. How long had she and her mother and her younger siblings waited for word from Father? How many nights had she and her mother talked in low voices about the dark reality of the war and that, though they fought a good fight, even good fights took good people.

As she and her mother turned to work to support themselves, Ellen knew she must find another way. On a whim, she’d stopped by a bridal agency and, before she knew it, she was leaving as a bride-to-be, signed up and ready to meet the man they would find for her.

Meet Jeff Owens. . .

The repeating mantra of the West was that there were no reputable women. As much as he hated to admit it, it was true”"especially in the town of Patchwork, Kansas.

He’d talked with several of his ranching friends, many from other small towns just like Patchwork, and they’d all said the same thing when he’d talked about getting married. Find a mail order bride.

He’d gone back and forth about coming to the bridal agency, but when it was all said and done, coming home to an empty ranch house wasn’t how Jeff wanted to spend the rest of his days. He wanted to hear the sound of little feet running to and fro. He wanted to feel a warm body next to his in bed at night.

He wanted love.

˃˃˃ Will Ellen discover that her feelings of doubt about marrying Jeff were wrong, and that deep down he loves her deeply?
