  Ruth Warthan is tired of her sedentary life. She longs for adventure,
  excitement, and most of all love, but her overly protective parents are
  content for her to stay with them forever, shunning even a hint of romance.
  Will an advertisement for a mail-order bride in faraway Texas be the answer to
  her prayers, or will she find that her parents were right, and she isn’t
  suited for marriage or life outside their cloistered home?
