Annie's Valentine Wedding Susannah Calloway

Annie Carter, a socialite from Philadelphia, is also an outcast and a misfit. The speech impediment she struggles with leaves her unable to converse with others in her set without stammering and stuttering. When Annie grows frustrated and dispirited, her grandmother encourages her to start over as a Mail Order Bride. Adam Benjamin is a war veteran who returns from the Civil War, scarred both inside and out. His fiancée, who promised to wait for him, ran off with another man. Adam's mother hates to see her son's bitterness, his rejection by women when they see his scars, and his pain when others point and stare. He's a good man who deserves to be loved by a woman-deserves a future and children. Maybe she should order a Mail Order Bride for him. After all, Valentine's Day is coming. Can cupid's arrow penetrate her son's scarred heart?
