Avoiding The Mistletoe

By Anne Greene

Description:

1865 Desperate Widow Olivia Rose Baker abandons her dying hometown in Massachusetts to become a mail-order bride in male-dominated Seattle, Washington. Her abusive husband died in the Civil War and left Olivia wary of marriage, so she hopes to take a teaching position rather than become a bride.
But the man who purchased her ticket to Seattle insists she fulfill her contract and marry.

Book Takeaway:

This book is about new beginnings. And becoming new creations in Christ. It is filled with hope.

Why the author wrote this book:

The story of The Mercer Girls is part of American history. These women settled a raw new town and became pillars of society. Most found happy marriages. I think the story is inspiring, so I wanted to write about such an unknown part of American history.
