Mail Order Bride of The West Series - Claire Dawson - Bog

THE ENTIRE MAIL ORDER BRIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN SERIES! Anna Bradbury has always been part of a family that wasn't quite rich enough to attend the lavish parties that were hosted all across the city, but her family was far from lower class. Until one night, when she is awoken from her slumber to find that her father has been killed and that all of their savings have been stolen from them by highwaymen. Left without a single penny to their names, Anna, her mother and younger sister attempt to figure out something to do to save their name and their house. Eloise is still too young to work, and Anna's mother too old. She tries to find a job, but with no luck. Resigned to fall to the dreaded lower class, Anna loses all hope until... Charles Middleton has lived in a small town where the mail only reaches them two times a year at most for all of his life. Inheriting his family's farm was his one and only foreseeable future. He didn't count on receiving a girl desperate to save her family from poverty as a Christmas present this year from his well-to-do aunt. Anna is different from every girl he has ever known; wild and untamable and incredibly bright. The fight has only begun once Charles and Anna are married. The townsfolk are vicious and struggle against accepting her with everything they have. Will Anna be doomed to remain an outcast in this strange little town, or will a Christmas miracle change everyone's hearts?
