Life isn't easy for a young woman alone in 19th Century Colorado, but when Emer Matthews needs to escape an untenable situation, she only has herself to depend on. She has no time for men having seen first hand the high price women pay for love, so she seeks solace with the sister she's never met, Sorcha. But when Emer gets to Boston, she discovers her sister has moved to Clover Springs and she's left alone with no money and no means to go back to Colorado.
Lawrence Shipley is bored. He’s fed up of his match making domineering mother. He wants to gain independence by heading up the Shipley Banking Dynasty in Denver. But his mother has other ideas. She decides to go to Denver too, reluctantly agreeing to take Father Molloy’s latest protégée, Emer.

Emer is nothing like any woman Lawrence has met. She intrigues him and excites him but it seems she won’t have anything to do with him. Can he destroy the wall she’s built around her heart? Or will her past catch up with her and destroy them both?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Rachel Wesson is the author of several best selling series including her latest based on the Orphan Trains. Having always been a fan of history, Rachel tries to combine her love of history with a good story.

Rachel Wesson was born in Kilkenny, Ireland but considers herself to be from the capital, Dublin as that’s where she spent most of her life. Her dad brought Rachel and her two sisters out every Saturday to give their mother a break. He took them to the library and for ice-cream after. It took a long time for her sisters to forgive her for the hours she spent choosing her books!

She grew up driving everyone nuts asking them questions about what they did during the War or what side they were on in the 1916 rising etc. Finally her Granny told her to write her stories down so people would get the pleasure of reading them. In fact what Granny meant was everyone would get some peace while Rachel was busy writing!

When not writing, or annoying relatives, Rachel was reading. Her report cards from school commented on her love of reading especially when she should have been learning. Seems you can't read Great Expectations in Maths.

After a doomed love affair and an unpleasant bank raid during which she defended herself with a tea tray, she headed to London for a couple of years. (There is a reason she doesn’t write romance!). She never intended staying but a chance meeting with the man of her dreams put paid to any return to Ireland. Having spent most of her career in the City, she decided something was missing. Working in the City is great but it’s a young person’s dream. Having three children you never see isn’t good for anyone. So she packed in the job and started writing. Thanks to her amazing readers, that writing turned into a career far more exciting and rewarding than any other.

Rachel lives in Surrey with her husband and three children, two boys and a girl. When not reading, writing or watching films for “research” purposes, Rachel likes to hang out with her family. She also travels regularly back home – in fact she should have shares in BA and Aerlingus.

I don’t know why but this book is missing chapter 1. It says chapter 1 but there is nothing there. Next page says chapter 2 and the text is there. Disappointing I am missing a chapter.

Good read for all ages. Especially if you feel that you are the only one with a dysfunctional family. And you can't be blamed for their poor choices. Even in pioneer days they had same problems we face today.

This book 4 was also very good. This series is wonderful. The mail order brides have good luck with husbands, except Emer. She escaped from her mothers terrible life and leaves to try and find her sister. Now on to book 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can Emer turn her life around?
Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2016

Emer has had a rough life. I'm not sure whose life was more difficult - Emer or her sister, Sorcha. Both are daughters of a fallen woman and both have struggled to grow up without any guidance from a mother or father. While her sister had the grandmother, poor Emer didn't have anyone except a loveless mother and a ruthless gang of outlaws. She's tough and hard on the outside, but soft on the inside as she seeks acceptance from a sister she's never known. Emer is fiercely loyal and protective of her sister - she wants to keep the bad away from Sorcha. I definitely felt for Emer as a reader and wanted to make her hurt and pain go away.

Lawrence is stuck between a rock and a hard place. He doesn't want to listen to his parents and go into banking, but he has no choice. He finally finds his backbone along the way as he meets Emer and gets to know her. His family is absolutely atrocious, as those with money can be. There is no consideration for those beneath their stations - they are merely there to serve those above them, even if it costs them their lives.

This book made me laugh, made me cry, made me mad and made me dream. I am so glad that Emer arrived victorious over her demons and she and Sorcha found a happily ever after for their families and futures.

I enjoyed the book after deciding it was all a very big fairytale, fun to read but not based in any real world drama. Fairytales are pretty much all that exist in American History. If you are anything but a white reader, you will see what I mean!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Clover Springs Mail Order Bride: Emer
Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2016

This particular author, Rachel Wesson, has come up with another outstanding book in Emer, which is the 4th book in this particular series. Lives ranging from a financially poor and emotionally poor young woman, to a financially rich, but emotionally poor, young man face the reader in this book as this young couple help each other. Two sisters find each other, along with their mother who eventually tells the story of why the two young women were separated, only for Emer to end up looking at being hung for crimes she didn’t commit. I fought tears and laughter both throughout this wonderful book. My heart, of course, went out to Emer! She faced so many trials in her young life. Thankfully she had a loving young man who, once overcoming the shock of his beloved’s history, was there to support her, and to love her enough to believe her. In addition, the author did a terrific job of uniting multiple couples from the previous books together in this book. This book showed me how life has many ups and downs as well as how perseverance can make humans so much stronger and able to face life’s issues. All of the various storylines wrapped together perfectly to make this a thrilling book to read and one I was unable to put down. I HIGHLY recommend this book for all ages as a must read!

Another fantastic story from Clover Springs series. Emer after having a traumatic time growing up with her mother who keeps company with outlaws is looking to find her sister after learning about her from there mother Patty. Emer runs to Denver where Father Malloy informs her Sorcha her sister is married and living in clover springs. Emer meets Lawrence Shipley from a very wealthy family after father Malloy arrangers for her to travel via train with the Shipley's. Lawrence is instantly attracted to her finding her intriguingly charming and funny. There are two love story's told as Frank and Nandita finally agree to marry after a few issues the characters from previous books as usual make an appearance especially Sorcha and her family Emers sister. It's a delightful series and I have the next book to start my favorite so far was Sorcha's story but I love reading and hearing of the previous characters being kept up to date of their stories in the series.
