When Susannah goes to Dakota territory as a mail-order bride
she finds something she never dreamed she would-true love. With no prospects for marriage and her parents recently
deceased, Susannah Underhill agrees to go west to the Dakota
territory to marry her minister's homesteading brother,
Jesse. But Susannah is painfully shy, doesn't see herself as
worthy of love from either a husband or from God, and lives
in constant fear that Jesse is going to ship her back to
Detroit. In spite of her petite size and the fact that Susannah
doesn't look like she could survive on the prairie, Jesse
quickly discovers that his new wife is a greater blessing
than he even hoped for. The years she spent as her father's
veterinary assistant allow her to save Jesse's ox and twin
calves and to help neighboring farmers with their animals. But Susannah's feelings of unworthiness are deeply rooted,
and she can't believe that Jesse's praise-or the tenderness
and love he shows-could possibly last. The thawing of her
heart seems almost as distant as Spring in the midst of the
winter blanketing the Dakota prairie.

Re: Spring for Susannah
spring for susannah is set in the 1800's on the frontier in the Dakota territory.The characters were well developed very likable! The chemistry between them felt real! The only negative I have I felt the challenges and sacrifices at times were rushed with little to no emotion. I was little was disappointed with the ending as it needed another chapter or two. Overall its a great story leaving the reader wanting more! I hope there will be a sequel to complete the story. I recommend this book !! A great new author!
