Hannah and Richard
Sweet, exciting story of a young girl who lost everything due to her father who gambled his life away. She sells everything to pay off his debts and writes to a man seeking a mail order bride.
Richard is the eldest of seven brothers. The younger six are all married and have families. They take it upon themselves to place a mail order bride ad to find a woman for their brother.
This was a great story, but confusing in the first few chapters as Hannah had decided to change her name for the correspondence due to her fathers deeds. Unfortunately the editor apparently missed it and it kept changing from Bartholomew to Bannister back and forth. Other than that, I enjoyed the book. -
Hannah’s father passed away from a fishing accident.
She has to sell everything even her mothers jewellery. Her father owed quite a bit of money due to his debts, The pawn broker tells her she should become a mail order bride.
