Silver Heels

By Katie Wyatt

It’s 1869 and love is starting to blossom in the booming town of Bear River City. This historically inspired Western romance much-loved series is about empowered women who turn around their hopeless circumstances in this mid-19th-century tale of the old West, with strong faith and discover genuine men and true love. Meet Mary Anderson, a twelve-year-old girl who appreciates the beautiful ray of the sunshine, a bunch of wildflowers in the garden, or a singing bird in the tree. She arrived at the orphanage when she was a baby. The nuns were the only family that she knew. Her mother had died giving birth, and all she knew of her father was his name, Richard Anderson. Sometimes she would ask the nuns for more information, but they would tighten their lips and look away, telling Mary that a young girl should not ask too many questions. Mary was sure that they knew more than they were telling, but they were deaf to the pleas. Mary knew that she was lucky to have been raised here, but sometimes she yearned to have a family of her own. She fears of becoming a spinster someday stuck up in the orphanage all her life, not having a family of her own. Afraid of the thought, Mary took a leap of faith and answered the ad she read on the newspaper, looking for a mail order bride.
