Victoria: Bride of Kansas

Victoria, Bride of Kansas, is the 34th book in the unprecedented 50-book series American Mail-order Brides: Jilted society miss Victoria Lowell travels over a thousand miles to marry an Irish suitor whose romantic letters won her heart. Upon arriving in Kansas, she discovers her betrothed has little enthusiasm for marriage and less Christmas spirit than Scrooge. Divorced shopkeeper David O'Brien wants nothing to do with matters of the heart. However, his young daughter needs a mother, and his meddling sister believes she's done him a favor by corresponding with a mail-order bride. Reluctantly, he holds off on revealing the author of the letters, giving Victoria until Christmas Eve to prove she can manage his troubled child. When the truth finally comes out, it will take more than a miracle to deliver a happily-ever-after in time for Christmas. Buy Victoria for Christmas, and why not purchase the sequel, Santa's Mail-Order Bride.
