How should rancher Harlan Graves act when his daughter Bernice runs away from boarding school, arriving home frightened and wanting her mother? He hasn't a clue, and the child's mother is buried on their ranch. How should Angelina Busto, The Cupcake Queen of New York, react when a nun attempts to set her up with a man nearly three thousand miles away? Her mother wants her to marry and bear children... but must it be so far away? This is a story of the pairing of two adults and the assimilation of a child who fears for her future. The principals meet in the mail (early in the 20th Century) and try to find a way to mesh. They meet in person and it doesn't work out. So she goes home. Was it a mislead? Is there a future for these two? Gilbert and Sullivan both have something to say about it. Especially if you like pastrami. Among the unique features of the book is a Godly way to explain menses. The story captures the interest of the mail-order bride stories but includes scriptural guidance in child-rearing and worship.
