A Christmas Home for Hannah

By Joi Copeland

Description:

A rancher in need of a wife or he loses his everything.
A promise to her grandfather to be a mail order bride just may be unfulfilled.

Briggs Blackwood is stuck between a rock and a hard place. While ranching is in his blood, and he loves it, he has to meet one requirement to take over the BW Ranch: get married and produce at least one grandchild within five years of his mother's death. Briggs never wanted to get married. Not being able to find a woman who sparks his interest, he gives up trying to find a bride. Hoping his father changes his mind, Briggs waits until the very last minute to place an advertisement for a mail order bride.


When Hannah Gallagher's mother dies giving birth to her, her no-good father leaves her with her mother's parents. They didn't have much, but they loved each other. When her grandmother passes suddenly, her grandfather forces her to respond to an advertisement for a mail order bride. Reluctantly, she agrees, but she does everything she can to make sure the groom-to-be won't pick her. After all, who would choose a barely educated woman who only knows how to grow vegetables and shoot squirrels for supper? And then her life turns upside down when she receives a letter asking for her hand in marriage. Doubts assail her as she gets ready to leave the only home she's ever known.

Will Hannah and Briggs discover just how much they need each other? Or will life's challenges become too much, with the only solution of Hannah returning to her grandfather and Briggs losing the family ranch?

Book Takeaway:

Our value isn't in what we do or how good we are. We are valued by Jesus and can't do anything to earn His love.
