Publisher's summary

Impatient to meet her intended groom and help him grow his general store, mail-order bride Eliza Cantrell sets out on her travels a week early. But her plan goes sadly awry when her train is held up by robbers who steal her dowry, and Axel, her groom-to-be, isn't even in town when she finally arrives.

Axel's business partner, William Stanton, has no head for business and would much rather be a doctor. When his friend's mail-order bride arrives in town with no money and no groom in sight, he feels responsible and lets her help around the store - where she quickly proves she's much more adept at business than he ever will be. The sparks that fly between Will and Eliza - as they work together in close quarters - are hard to ignore, but Eliza is meant for Axel and a future with the store while Will is biding his time until he can afford medical school. However, their troubles are far from over when Axel finally returns, and soon both Will and Eliza must decide what they're willing to sacrifice to chase their dreams - or if God has a new dream in store for them both.

Amazing

Such an emotional story that I cried several times and for me to do that it is sad.

But it is also a joyful journey in the end as God has plans that just have to be relied upon.

Pilar is one of my favorite narrators and brings the story to like. Just wonderful

Wonderful!

This is a wonderful book! I read it a couple of years ago and enjoyed listening to the story of Will and Eliza again. Will is so selfless and caring. Eliza is determined to get someone to believe in her. I loved it when she realized that Will is that person.
