Publisher's Summary:
Texan rancher Jett Crossman has everything he needs except the most important thing: a family.
This Christmas, the only wish the lonely handsome cowboy has is for a bride, someone to be his everything. His advertisement in The Matrimony Messenger consists of his photograph and two words. Southern Belle Charlotte Baxter, the overindulged child of a widower, sees his ad. Something in Jett's eyes makes her believe he is the one for her and compels her to answer his ad. She is after adventure and romance on the wild frontier. He is seeking contentment and true love.
Well aware of Charlotte's habit to be impulsive to the point of recklessness, her father, a newspaper publisher, lets her go west to the frontier town of Dovetail, Texas. Unbeknownst to Charlotte, he sends along Jasper Farnum, his pressman, to keep an eye on her. Charlotte arrives like a locomotive in a Christmas snowstorm to make Jett's wish for a bride come true.
Jasper fears that when Jett discovers what a handful Charlotte is, he will realize he should have been careful what he wished for. However, Jasper does not have time to worry about that for long. Suddenly smitten with a mysterious woman, he jumps headlong into unforeseen trouble. Charlotte may be the only one who can get him out of it. This Christmas in Dovetail, the table turns, the snow falls, and true love, whether wished for or not, prevails. Jasper is called westward and Charlotte is westward wanted.

A "Cute" story but with no depth of character for anyone
That was just about the dumbest Mail Order Bride I have ever read. In the first few chapters you couldn't keep up with what they were saying because there was 2 or more pages of description in between the questions and the response and then you had to go back and figure out what the response was to... The story had no depth of humanity in it.. There was little to no romance in it. The "bride" story got tangled up with two other "love" stories that held even less depth in them. It was, rather, a cute little story where everyone found a spouse. I wouldn't read any more of her books if this was an example
No way, Jose!
I gave up on this one. The basic outline of the story was good. The writing drove me crazy. How many times does the author need to say the hero is good looking? The "handsome cowboy said..." "The handsome cowboy got on his horse..." I mean, we get the idea. Okay? And the long, needlessly overwrought descriptions: "voice as smooth and dark as a glass of sarsaparilla," "lion-like symmetry of his face," "She.....drowned in the power of his loving gaze and the potency of his declaration." Ugh! I just couldn't take anymore.
Winter Mail Order Bride: Charlotte 's Christmas
A great book that I couldn't put down until I had finished the entire story. A spoiled young lady wanted to find a husband and new life. There were living in different places , but wrote to the other and got married right off the train. There were robberies,train wrecks, uninvited guests, an unhappy lady and more events that kept this very enjoyable. A great reading experience from Amazon kindle western historical romance at a special price.
