While Belle Montgomery works for the hotel in Beckham, Massachusetts as a waitress, her mind is always far away…in a home of her own with a husband and children. With the hours she works, she doesn’t have time to meet anyone special. When she runs into Elizabeth Tandy at an event, and Elizabeth mentions her matchmaking business, Belle jumps at the chance. Her only worry is what life will be like in far-off Alaska Territory.
Everett Thompson has spent years building up a business in the Alaskan wilderness. Finally, he feels it’s time for him to find a wife, but there’s only one woman in the small town he lives in who is much older and already married. When he spots an ad for mail-order brides in the Seattle newspaper, he sends a letter off to the matchmaker, asking for a wife.
Belle goes on a long journey where she meets Everett halfway through. They marry immediately and begin the last part of the journey, through the Alaskan wilderness and along the Yukon River. Belle begins to fall in love along the way, but will things change once they’ve reached his home? And will she be able to adjust to the Alaskan lifestyle?
