    About this ebook

    "Beauty is, indeed, in the eye of the beholder as three young women from Salt Lake City discover love is blind and find happiness to last forever."

    Rejoice with Big Beautiful Ada as a precarious situation turns into the fiercest of loves worth fighting for.

    Ada Bartholomew is put down and RIDICULED for her larger body shape. Finding any man to love her for WHO she is and not WHAT SIZE dress she wears is futile.

    Ada is protective of her younger sister, Anna, and foster sister, Emma. She's taken care of them for as long as she can remember. When her father unknowingly strikes a deal with an unscrupulous, married politician and Ada is in DANGER. This older man frequents the brothel and has admired Ada for a while now in the bakery where she works. When she ends up in his clutches, Ada needs to FLEE FAST and get away . . .

    So . . . Ada begins her new life as the Mail Order Bride to a stranger she has no idea about. He may TURN HER AWAY because she is BIGGER and he is a very SMALL man.

    The plan seems to be working but . . .

    What she doesn't know is that Bobby Grant is not just any small, nervous, law-abiding citizen, he’s a prosecutor and his best friend is the city marshal!

    Ada’s first friend is the MARSHAL’S WIFE. She should tell the truth before it’s TOO LATE…

    Will her secret stay HIDDEN and what happens if either Bobby - the prosecutor - or his Marshal friend discover the TRUTH about her?

    Bobby's been awaiting a bride for two years. He's GIVEN UP on ever finding LOVE. A few ladies have come to meet him but then they leave again on the next stagecoach because he’s SMALL and PAINFULLY SHY. His hopes and dreams for acceptance and LOVE are smashed by his ANXIETY each time. But for some reason Bobby can’t give up on love even though he knows he should.

    Though Ada is twice his size can they see past that to let true love grow?

    Will the ridicule and laughter of cruel people break them down or make them stronger?

    Faye Sonja

    Faye Sonja is a multi-voiced writer who aspires to use different voices in telling her stories, seeing characters coming alive through the multi-faceted writing styles give her great satisfaction. As a young girl, Faye Sonja has been fascinated with stories of the Old West, especially the theme of Mail Order Bride where a woman will find the courage to leave her homeland, take the plunge to seek out the love of her life out there in the unknown land. Such an act requires bravery, such an act requires faith. It takes a woman with strong Christian faith to step out on such a pursuit for her love. It is Faye's desire that readers will once again have the courage to believe in love again from reading her books, to be inspired through the characters in her story who through perseverance, in the face of obstacles, overcame the hurdles using that simple faith and belief of theirs.
