Mail Order Bride: Return To Sender?

Smashwords Edition

Jake glanced up to peer out the window, looking across the field to the horse barn. Laura was sitting in the middle of the waving grasses, her arms wrapped around her knees. Jake watched her for a while, unsure as to what she’d do. Just moments before, she had stormed out of the little house, both of them raging at each other.

Laura didn’t look like she was going anywhere, though. Jake dragged a chair from the kitchen table to the window and sat down before crossing his legs and propping his bible up on them.

Normally, he’d open the book and consult with the good word to look for guidance in these kinds of situations. However, he’d had about all he could stand. There wasn’t much in the bible for him that would change what he was about to do.

Dear Ross & Marks, he wrote, careful not to smear the ink with his passing fist. I am writing to inquire about the options I have in returning a bride to your mail order service.

When Jake had first written a letter to Ross & Marks, the matchmaking service he’d heard praised so highly by some of his fellow ranchers. He’d known several to have great success with Ross & Marks, bringing their new blushing brides to town to show them off.

She’s everything I ever hoped for, Franklin Castor had told him at the general store as they both admired Franklin’s new wife, sitting demurely in the wagon, waiting for her husband.

But you didn’t know her before? Jake asked.

You were complete strangers, but it worked?

You’re looking at another Ross & Marks success story, Franklin said, holding his hands out. We got married right away, and now we’re getting acquainted. Look at it this way: We’re actually interested in each other. We tell each other new stories every day about people we’ve never met. I look forward to waking up beside her so we can talk some more. She loves the ranch, Jake. And I know she’s going to love me, too.

Even with Franklin’s enthusiastic testimony in favor of the mail order bride service, Jake was still hesitant to even consider the idea. How could he commit to someone he’d never met before, let alone marry someone he wasn’t even sure would love him?

However, that night, after he’d made the long ride back out to his big, lonely ranch, Jake had thought that maybe a woman to share it wouldn’t be so bad. As it was, his only company was his horses and the cattle that sustained the entire operation. He loved his ranch, but it could be a hard place. He’d carved it out of the land himself,
