The older members of the Clear Creek church women's group, informally known as the Peashooter Society, decide to help the unattached women in town obtain husbands.
It's 1892, almost twenty years after first mail-order brides found love in Clear Creek, Kansas in the Brides with Grit Series.
The group's solution, with the backing of a wealthy financier in town, is to advertise that they will offer jobs and housing to the prospective grooms they pick for the unsuspecting women.
The young women are appalled at the idea when they catch wind of the women's plan—until they see the handsome male finalists. Maybe this will work out after all…until the couples matched, clash.
Now what?
This introduction story starts the Mismatched Mail-order Brides Series. The couples change who they are courting, and fun and mayhem abound in this Kansas cow town.
