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! ':)
