Dr. Joshua McClain is heading west, but first stops in Hillsdale, Michigan, to break the marriage contract his late mother arranged between him and Katie Clark.

Years ago, Katie left him behind in Charleston after the tragic death of her mother. But after a train crash, he comes face-to-face with Dr. Kathleen Clark, his childhood friend all grown up.

When Josh shows up in town, claiming they're betrothed, Katie refuses to consider an arranged marriage. She'll marry for love or not at all. Besides, he's headed for Kansas Territory; her practice is here in Hillsdale. Then, why are they both finding it hard to break their betrothal and say goodbye?

I really enjoyed this book, especially because I am from MI and know exactly where Hillsdale is. I think this story moves along well, has a little suspense to keep you guessing. I love how the friendship Joshua and Katie had helps them rediscover each other later in life. It is nice to see the respect Josh has for Katie as a doctor even though most of the town doesn't want to accept her as such.

Very good

This was a fresh approach to romance and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Stayed up late to finish it. Once started I couldn't get myself to pause it. I enjoyed the romance, the bit of adventure with the train wreck, add a touch of mystery to the mix and you have a great story. And, of course, I always like a happy ending. This author keeps it clean with no inapporpriate language or content. I always am comfortable recommending her books to friends and family.

The narration was quite good making the characters easy to picture in my mind. Added to the enjoyment of listening to the book.

I requested this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

A Delightful Story
