Eli Farley wasn't having a good year when it came to marriage. Twice, he was engaged, and neither time led to a marriage. He finally made a choice to send for a mail-order bride, but his letter was destroyed on the way to the post office. Enough is enough, he decided. Marriage wasn't meant for him. Cora Barnett's life hadn't been an easy one. Her only living parent was a drunken, good-for-nothing Pa, who ruined all her marriage prospects. Barely surviving, she jumped at the opportunity presented to her by an aunt.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 19
A secret engagement, a matchmaking father, and the twist of fate no one saw coming. Bridget Monahan can’t deny she’s led a somewhat charmed life. The only gray cloud in Bridget’s personal sky is her father’s ridiculous idea that his ex-Navy pilot protégé and his daughter constitute a match made in heaven. His less-than-tactful (and downright embarrassing) attempts to force her and Graham together have made it necessary to keep her engagement to the man she does love a secret.

The Ultimatum Bride
Enjoy the book sweat and endearing story. The Mail order brides had to be very brave to travel so far to marry someone they had never met before dealing with the unknown and what their lives would like. Totally an amazing and fascinating era.

Simplistic and idealized. Teen and young adult.
Sweet story. Not realistic. Reminds one of a fairy tale with everyone living happily ever after.

Not a great listen..
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
The story itself has merit. If you like stories of mail order brides this is not a bad story. I might have liked it better if i had read it myself from an actual book. The narrator does not do voices well and he reads emotions into situations where they do not seem to fit. Just not worth the listen.
What didn’t you like about Randy Fuller’s performance?
stilted and emotions of characters did not seem to match the "voice" he was giving them.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
the story was sweet in and of its self. probably better as a read only not a listening book.
