Brant Samson has fallen on hard times with the death of his beloved wife a year earlier from lung fever. Left with three children, he's desperate to find a mother for them. Ten year old Jenny does her best to care for two year old Ty, and fourteen year old Luke works the ranch with his father, losing himself in dime novels to ease the pain of his mother's death. Brant's options are limited since eligible women seldom pass through Two Rivers, much less settle in the small Texas town. In desperation, he places a classified advertisement for a mail order bride. Marrying a woman he'll come to know through a newspaper ad scares the bejesus out of him, but at this point, he's out of options.
Abigail Mary Vaughn always dreamed of having her own family, but caring for her elderly parents, as well as working as a teacher to help with finances, ended that dream. Her parents are now dead and she's faced with the reality of her dismal existence. After reading Mr. Samson's advertisement in the Philadelphia Inquirer, she garners enough courage to respond. Since she is considered an old maid at the age of thirty-eight, she'll more than likely spend the rest of her life in gut-wrenching loneliness unless she does something unconventional.
This is the first book in the Unconventional Series.

I loved the story and there are some twists and turns you don't see coming at all. Have a tissue handy. The original story was great. I look forward to more in the series.
Great book, grab a tissue

The narration is pretty poor. Part of it is simply because I find the lady's voice annoying, but most of it is her monotone rendition of the story.
There were a few occasions where I wanted to stop, but in the end I did listen to the entire book.
Don't feel like I wasted my time, but at the same time wouldn't ever listen to this book again.
Very monotone narration ok story

What did you like best about Abby: Mail Order Bride? What did you like least?
The story was great but I never got used to the narrator. I won't finish the series even though I really liked the story.The narrator over enunciated each word and had little inflection in her voice.
Maybe a reader; not a listener.

At first I wondered if a book less than 4 hours long would be worth a credit, but I was unfamiliar with the author and wanted to judge for myself....and I can tell you, with a resounding YES, it was well worth the credit.
Be sure to have a box of tissue handy when listening to Abby: Mail Order Bride, you'll need it.
Verna Clay is a very talented author, and I hope Audible will be adding her next book in this series, as well as other books by Ms. Clay.
Although Amy Gramour's voice is rather monotone, it is pleasant and did not distract from this touching, true to life story about a Mail Order Bride from the East traveling to Texas to care for a family of four who had lost their wife and mother the year before.
I recommend it all soft-hearted romantics.
Sweet -- Touching!
