Letters, Lies, and Longings
She promised him honesty—but hid the one truth that could destroy everything.
When widowed Mary Robbins answers a mail-order bride advertisement, she sees a chance to escape the suffocating judgment of Oak Grove and build a new life for herself and her five-year-old daughter, Annie. But haunted by a past rejection that branded her child a "burden," Mary makes a desperate choice: she doesn't mention Annie in her letters.
Buck Jennings needs a wife. A Wyoming rancher raising his young son alone, he's looking for a partner—someone steady, kind, and honest. When Mary's letters arrive, warm and genuine, he dares to hope he's found her.
But secrets have a way of surfacing. When Buck travels east and discovers the daughter Mary never mentioned, everything they've built through months of correspondence threatens to crumble. Can a love born from letters survive a lie? And can two wounded hearts learn to trust again—not just each other, but themselves?
Set against the rugged promise of the 1868 frontier, Letters, Lies, and Longings is a tender story of second chances, chosen family, and the courage it takes to believe you deserve happiness.
