About Anna’s New Beginning – A Second Chance Mail Order Bride Series: A Sweet, clean and wholesome, historical western mail-order-bride story (Clean Historical Western Romance Books):
When Anna and her husband, Frederick, boarded a boat to take them from their home in Germany all the way to America, they knew they had the journey of a lifetime ahead of them. What they didn’t know was that the long trip across the sea would be the easiest part.
Manhattan in the late nineteenth century was a cruel place. Living conditions were harsh and the work was hard, but together, Anna and Frederick made a little life for themselves and welcomed their daughter, Catherine. But it would not be long before a sudden illness took Frederick’s life – and Anna was suddenly alone.
Resourceful and independent, Anna did what she could to keep herself and the baby alive. She couldn’t afford to pay anyone to care for her infant, and she couldn’t take the baby to the textile mill where she worked. Knowing her money would run out soon, she approached the mill owner’s son, John Tomlinson, to ask for a position in his office.
That night changed everything, but not the way she’d expected.
On the run from a madman, Anna disappears deep into the narrowest streets of the city, where she takes on odd jobs to keep from starving, but she is pursued by Tomlinson. She knows she must leave the city, or succumb. One day, a photo in the newspaper caught her eye – a photo that would lead her across the country…perhaps to safety.
Charles Turner is a handsome, hardworking rancher. He’s been running the ranch alone with his mother since his father died, but Martha is aging now. She wants to see him settled, but there is a reason none of the girls in their settlement have set their sights on Charles. In desperation, she places a newspaper ad for a mail-away bride, pretending to be Charles. Before long, she hears from a desperate young Anna, writing from Manhattan.
Can Martha convince her son to help Anna, and let Anna help him? And if she comes, will Anna find safety with Charles in Montana…even when her past comes to call?
