Mail Order Bride

by Catriona McCuaig

Lydia McFarlane has been used to a life of wealth and privilege, but when her father remarries, her new stepmother starts a systematic campaign to remove Lydia from the family home in Ontario. She runs away to the prairie town of Alberta to become a mail order bride - but life in the Golden West is not as idyllic as she imagined.
