Publisher's Synopsis
Eli:
My name is Eli Todd and I've made plans to go west. I'm ready to marry my perfect, delicate, and obedient wife and bring her along. All I need to do is find her. When the marriage advertisement I placed in the newspaper leads me to meet Lacy, an ill-suited farm girl, I decide I'll have better luck finding a wife in Oregon.
Lacy:
I'm Lacy and I'm a runaway, an orphan and a street urchin but I have plans! When I meet Eli Todd, a stuffy gentleman who turns his nose up at my offer of marriage, I decide to go west all on my own because who needs the likes of him? I certainly don't. But when I find myself in need, he's there. He's willing to help me, but he has a few conditions.
