Mail Order Devastation — Julianna Blake

When her baby is stolen, Mollie Quinn is propelled into an agonizing search for her daughter...only to find that little Nell has been taken across the country to the far West. With no way to afford a train ticket to Montana, a desperate Mollie is forced to take drastic measures, agreeing to become a mail order bride and marry a virtual stranger.

Noah Jamison has lived an easy life as the only son of a Helena shop owner. Running the shop with the help of his widowed mother, he is ready to move on to a home and a wife of his own. He wants a woman who will be a devoted companion and an attentive homekeeper, and Mollie Quinn seems the perfect choice. But when his new bride shirks her duties, sneaking off for hours each day, and dissolving into tears behind locked doors, he wonders if marrying her was a grave mistake.

Will Mollie find her daughter, and convince her new husband to accept them both? Or will her unbounded love for Nell force Mollie to sacrifice her dream of finally having a real family?
