The Bride's Orphan Christmas Susannah Calloway

Alice Thompson leaves her past behind when she boards a train to Sheridan, Wyoming. She is a Mail Order Bride, desperate to move on from the grief of a late husband and an unsatisfying life in New York. As she travels, her train is robbed, and Alice's journey is cut short by a shocking revelation. William Conway, a US Marshall with a permanent, undisclosed affliction, becomes Alice's savior and takes her to the orphanage where he grew up. Martha, the matron of the orphanage, welcomes Alice into their home. Soon, strong feelings between William and Alice blossom. But when the truth unfolds just before Christmas, emotions flare and relationships still being built are broken. The love between Alice and William is pitted against the wealth and power of a despicable man intent on having his promised Mail Order Bride. Is the struggling, yet growing love between Alice and William strong enough to win against the man who is determined to have Alice at all costs?
