A woman running out of hope…
A rancher looking for a wife…
And three chaotic sisters and a sheepdog!
On the verge of being destitute, Phoebe Hale enlists the help of the Sisters’ Mail-Order Bride Company to find her a husband. What she finds instead is disorder, paperwork stacked to the ceiling, and three well-meaning sisters who could desperately use a woman with Phoebe’s practical skills.
Braxton Jones arrives with a similar purpose. Ready for a wife, he turns to the same company, only to discover that before any marriages can happen, the business itself may need saving. Practical, steady, and unwilling to walk away from a problem left unsolved, Braxton offers his help.
Neither Phoebe nor Braxton came looking for love in Chicago. They came for solutions. But as Christmas approaches and the Merriweather sisters press them into service, shared work turns into shared laughter, and cooperation begins to look dangerously like courtship.

Because sometimes love arrives not through careful arrangement… but through a little Christmas calamity.
