About When Plans Go Awry by Denise M. Colby
Olivia Carmichael escapes her past to be the next schoolmarm in the small ranching community of Washton, California. Her plan? Live a quiet spinster life, alone, never to depend on anyone ever again.
Luke Taylor selected a mail-order bride, a necessity to help raise his two younger sisters and the only way he knew to protect his heart. His plans don’t include being responsible for the beautiful new schoolmarm, who threatens his resolve between his need to stay away and his need to be near to make sure she stays safe.
Along the way, neither feel much in control of their circumstances. Olivia’s carefully laid-out plans are challenged at every turn, and Luke’s mail-order bride is not what he expected. Will Luke and Olivia learn to trust God’s plan for their lives?
