Clara is one of the lucky ones. At the age of fifteen, she is chosen to live at Mary’s Home for Girls, a home that takes in girls who need a second chance. She wants to jump at the chance to leave the orphanage she has been living in for the past year, but there was one problem: she would need to leave her little brother, Cooper, behind.
She decides to go, with the idea that in a few years, she will be able to get a job and support Cooper.
Five years later, she is still at Mary’s Home and works at a job she hates, making very little money. She knows she is never going to be able to get her brother out of the orphanage with little money.
Clara decides to become a mail-order bride and starts to write Walker, a man who is the sheriff of a small town in Texas. When Walker asks her to travel to Texas to marry him, she agrees.
But now she has another decision to make. Walker doesn’t know about Cooper.
Will Walker be able to accept them both and form a new family?
