The mail-order mayhem continues. Nothing goes as planned for either Suzanna or Charlotte, yet somehow they both get what they deserve. It's complicated. Seattle hasn't been the same since dozens of women responded to a letter for a mail-order bride. Suzanna and Charlotte, two southern belles who couldn't be more different, both answered the same advertisement seeking a husband. Raised in a world of wealth and privilege, Suzanna Jefferies feels entitled and will do anything to get what she wants. With a beguiling smile on her face, the beautiful blonde lies and steals as a means to the end she desires. She feels no remorse for her actions until she inadvertently falls asleep beside Marshal Hadley, trapping them both in a marriage proposal neither wants. Suddenly, her plans must be escalated, for she'll never marry a man of limited means, a public servant no less! Marshal Hadley's Deputy, Dalton, sees behind the façade Suzanna erects. Despite being attracted to Suzanna, he's determined to expose her for the fraud she is, hold her accountable, and release his boss from his obligation. Instead, as the real woman begins to reveal herself and her dark past is uncovered he finds himself feeling empathy for her, maybe more. Charlotte, sweet and generous, falls in love with the man Suzanna has tricked into marriage, knowing her love will never be returned. Born into poverty, she makes much from nothing, and in her quiet unassuming way she goes about making the Marshal's home a welcoming haven, while allowing Suzanna to take the credit. Lies are exposed, schemes unraveled, and the intense animosity between Effie and Suzanna comes to a shocking conclusion! The novel has been previously published. It has been revised, re-edited, and is offered for your enjoyment by the original author.
