Susannah Calloway

The French Bride of Arkansas Susannah Calloway

Keith Hamilton, the son of a wealthy tobacco plantation owner, is ordered to marry a thoroughly disagreeable woman in Rutger's Creek-or his sister will not be allowed to marry her sweetheart. Something must be done. His best alternative is to get a Mail Order Bride. Anyone is better than Beatrice Charlton. Anyone. Colette Boisselot is newly arrived to America from France. After her fiancé deserts her, she's impoverished, destitute, and out of options. She signs up to become a Mail Order Bride. After all, she's convinced real love no longer exists - so what does it matter if she doesn't even know the man? Will Keith and Colette fall in love and have their happily ever after? Or will Keith's family send Colette back to France, in favor of the girl they've already chosen for him?
