Most, but not her. The one man she had said yes to was dragging his feet. The townspeople all agree she is in need of a husband. Even the young girls in her Sunday School Class have taken action by writing an ad for the paper.
Wanted: Husband for Rebecca Mueller. **Must be handsome, nice, like children, and live within walking distance of Carrie Town School.
Will her circumstances change and allow her to hold out for true love?

Twenty-year-old Meriwether Walker enjoys teaching students of various ages and skills in a one-room schoolhouse.

From feeling like an unwanted guest to leaky roofs and bedbugs, Meriwether longs for a place to call home. Unexpectedly she inherits an estate from a devoted uncle. 
In my first novel Rebecca’s Hope, I introduced colorful characters and innovative young women in a western town in the late 19th century. Lois’s Risk is a continuation of the tale based on Rebecca’s friend and dress shop owner, Lois Weaver.
