This is a love story novel based on historical facts of the Mail Order Brides that went west in the USA in the 1870's. Written as a love story, it none-the-less covers the trials and tribulations that met many of the mail order brides of the era. It's a poignant love story about Annie Allen leaving her home in Cincinnati in 1875 in response to a request for a mail order bride made by a man in The Wyoming Territory who may not be exactly as he describes himself to be. When she arrives in the wrong town, it's the town sheriff that grabs her attention and eventually her affections. Gary has a way of telling this tale with both feeling and actual historical facts that make this novel stand out from so many others.
