Summary
Anna is stunned when she finds out that her widowed father has been writing to a woman in Maine—after he placed an advertisement in a newspaper for a wife! Could a stranger really travel all the way from the coast to their house on the prairie? But as Anna and her brother also begin to exchange letters with Sarah, they become intrigued by this woman who writes with such beauty about the ocean she loves. By the time she finally arrives by train, the children are already in love with her. But can she replace their mother? And can this mail-order bride from far away really make her home out west?
