But now both of her friends have gone West to marry Mounties, leaving Lisa without their constant companionship. Lisa's mother makes her realize she wants to be a Mountie's wife as well, so she goes to see Miss Hazel, the matchmaker who helped her two friends find happiness.Wesley Jacobson has never known what it was like to have a family, filling the gap with his fellow Mounties and the people he serves. When he hears that there's a matchmaker willing to introduce Mounties to mail-order brides, he immediately sends off a letter, having no idea what to expect. What he didn't anticipate was being sent a bride with cerebral palsy who he sees as weak and incapable. Will Lisa be able to convince Wesley that she's as capable as any other wife in the West? Or will they spend their entire lives at cross purposes?
