Opis

Joane & Mattio: Stonemasons In Italy - Set in the Middle Ages, this story is about an Englishwoman who is sent to Italy to become the bride of an Italian stonemason, living in the shadow of Mt. Vesuvius. She is an intelligent and inventive woman herself and along with her husband, then come up with several highly unorthodox solutions to both warring factions, and taxes. Betty The Proud & Darnel The Younger - Many years after the fall of civilization, well, sort of... a young noble woman from Michigonia is sent for to wed the son of a reigning leader of his people. They need heirs. So, she gets married immediately and turns out to be far from the image that her new husband had imagined his wife to be; forthright, willing to produce multiple sons and daughters, and a warrior to boot. High Society Woman & The Wolves, is about a high society woman in NYC who gets sent off to Oregon to be the bride of a lonely outpost operator. He is as stunned by her beauty when she gets off the train, as she is by the wilderness surrounding his cabin and home. She doesn't know how to make a fire or even sweep the floor and her many trunks of fine clothing fill up his small cabin. Amidst the howls of wolves surrounding them in the darkness of the forest, both will have to decide if they can ever make a match. Jordyn Settles For Leftovers, is the emotional story of Jordyn, a woman who starts out by lying when she begins a correspondence with a rancher in Oregon who has advertised for a mail order bride. All she wants to do is get out west, learn how to run a ranch, then own one herself--just like she and her now deceased father had planned. Under other deceptions, she gets a free boat ride out to the west coast from a mail order bride company sending one hundred women in search of husbands.
