The Mail-Order Papa series will consist of clean, Christian-based, historical books. Rather than a mail-order bride, what about a mail-order groom? Sometimes, even a woman has to take a chance to find happiness. What is a woman to do when men from the railroad come calling, making threats, and determined to take away her land? She finds a man who is big, and burly, and helps take on the fight.
Widow Lorena Lombardi lives outside of the small town of Pembina, North Dakota, in a heavily wooded area. She is raising a little girl, Fia, and a strange-looking pet raccoon, Monster, along with her three fainting goats.
“Young woman, twenty-four, with own land, North Dakota. Seeks husband with practical skills to make a home in the forest. Serious applicants only.”
Former Secret Service Agent, Cole Wheeler, needs a new life, away from the city. Finding an ad for a woman in the West seeking a husband, he applies. Maybe he doesn’t tell the complete truth—or even close to it. What a surprise when she picks him.
The story was a fun page-turner and both Lorena and Cole omit so many truths to each other. But those truths will come to life. Lorena doesn’t mention she had been married and was widowed, or that she is raising a little girl that isn’t her own. Cole has never been a lumberjack, but leads her to believe he is at home in the woods, and capable of building. What will happen to them when the truth is revealed? What will happen when the hired men come to try and threaten and scare Lorena from her home?
The truth isn’t always pretty, and knowing that they both are guilty of lies by omission isn’t a great way to start. But Cole is taken with Lorena and Fia. When he learns of the threats and dangers presented by the railroad, he is determined to protect his girls. In the end, the three make a strong family and work together. When push comes to shove, they learn that friends in town and, some in high places, make the difference. Best of all, the story does have the coveted happily ever after ending.
