Mail Order Mornings. Brides of Beckham, #33

Mabel Brida loves her job working as a cook for a family of means in Beckham, Massachusetts. What she doesn't love is her employer chasing her around town, trying to catch her alone so he can make improper advances. When Bernard Tandy spots her being backed into a corner by her employer, he takes her home to his wife, hoping Elizabeth can find her a better life out west as a mail-order bride. Walter Caldwell lost his wife just days after his third daughter was born, and though he loved her dearly, he knows he needs to remarry, if only so his children can once again eat decent meals and wear clothing that fits.
When he sends off for a mail-order bride, he's not expecting much. How could a woman who was pretty and capable be available to be a mail-order bride?When Mabel and Walter marry, neither has any real expectations of the other, but they find that both of them are willing to work hard for their family.  But will a mutual love of the children be enough? Or will they spend their lives in a loveless marriage?
