Leanna's Light — Maxine Douglas

Rescued from the streets of New York City as a child, Leanna Jones knows the reality of feeling alone and the impact it can have on children. Now a teacher at Madam Wigg's Foundling Home and School, Leanna leaves the only home and family she's ever known and makes her way to Indian Territory to marry a man she's never met and find a way to open his children's hearts to more than grief.

Widower Travis Matlock was left with three small children to raise, in addition to taking care of his old homestead. For two years he has struggled to care for his children while maintaining his business. In desperation, he sends for an educated mail-order bride from an accredited New York City foundling home and school.

Leanna is determined to bring love and joy to the hearts of the Matlock family. Travis and his children might open their minds to education, but will they keep their hearts closed to the possibility of love?
