Solid research and historical detail, coupled with realistically human characters struggling with their faith, make this new work a great read. Marlys found life just a bit easier, with her good looks and charming personality smoothing away any problems she encounters. Highly recommended.Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.

As she watches Marlys toy with the emotions of homesteader Royce Ferguson, she realizes that Marlys actually has no intention of marryin. Once you start it, you won't want to put it down til done! I really enjoyed "Second-Best Bride" In fact I've read it several times. It's refreshing to read ficton that challenges me as well as entertains. Miss P, The Lamb children, and Meg Shaw were interesting characters that I could relate to. I'm looking forward to reading more of Ruth Glover's books.
