Mail Order Mirth. Brides of Beckham, #48

Amelia Beckham, an orphan, sees the world through eyes filled with wonder and joy. Her spirit, untouched by life's hardships, finds beauty in the most unexpected places. When she answers an ad to become a mail-order bride, her heart flutters with anticipation, not fear. She knows not what awaits her, yet she strides forward, her faith unwavering. Anthony Martin, a widower who weathered by life's storms, carries the weight of the world on his shoulders.
His two boys, ages six and four, keep him going every day whether he wants to or not. He sends a letter to a matchmaker in Massachusetts, hoping against hope that she will be able to find a woman who will bring happiness back into the lives of him and his sons. Their worlds collide in Midland, amidst the endless Texas plains. Amelia's boundless optimism meets Anthony's pragmatic realism. She teaches him to see the silver linings, transforming his life into something he thought he'd never have again.
Will the two of them find happiness in the middle of West Texas? Or will the two of them find that they cannot be together?
