Publisher's summary

Listen to this debut novel from Ivy Cruz!

Rosa Baldry is growing tired of her life of poverty and monotony. She wonders if a better way of life is possible, where she can realize the dreams that she once had before she got married to Burton. Rosa loves the rolling hills of Catburns Virginia but dreams of adventures beyond. Her husband, Burton, seems to be disinterested in their marriage, especially since they have been trying to have children for such a long time. The couple grows further apart day by day, but Rosa keeps faith in God and prays daily.

Virgil Hennessy, a wealthy railroad businessman from Nevada, is looking for a wife who will fill in the missing piece in his life. Virgil is a young man who offers the promise of a good life filled with excitement, wealth, and adventure. Virgil desires someone who will make a good wife to himself and their future family. He is not the type of person to judge people based on their past circumstances, since he knows what it is like to overcome difficult situations.

After unexpected circumstances in their marriage, Rosa considers divorce, a difficult decision for a staunch Christian such as herself. Her world is turned upside down when Virgil comes into her life. Virgil is everything that Rosa desires, but they cannot live in peace since they are constantly haunted by her past. Can they overcome the obstacles, or will their love end in tragedy?

Promise of True Love

Not your typical mail order bride story. In this story, we get to see what brings Rosa to the point where she decides to become a mail order bride. I was surprised by the turn it took, and how it ended.

Ivy Cruz did a nice job with this story. I enjoyed getting more of the background.

Mace Earl Finn did a nice job with the narration.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

My first western historical

I don't know if a Mail Order bride was ever a real thing, but it is a very fascinating idea. Poor MC, my heart breaks for her. Such a unique story with a wonderful story teller!
