A sweet historical romance set in 1873.
Helen Higby answers an ad for a mail-order bride, but finds out her groom is already married—and wanted by the law—after their wedding ceremony. Now stuck in Clear Creek, Kansas, with her four little girls, Helen needs a way to provide for her family.
Ethan Paulson is in charge of the family hotel while his parents take an extended trip. Ethan's fiancée, Sarah Wilerson, left him at the altar last summer and he's had a hard time accepting her rejection—until a beautiful woman and her children take up residence in the Paulson Hotel.
Helen had worked in a hotel in Pennsylvania before traveling to Kansas, so she helps Ethan organize and improve the offerings of the Paulson Hotel, while falling in love with him.
Sparks fly when Mrs. Paulson, Ethan's mother, returns to find changes, including a family making themselves at home in the hotel, and in Ethan's heart. Can chaos and drama turn into love and a happy ending for everyone living in the Paulson Hotel?
