Christmas Beginnings Wrapped in Faith & Love : Christmas Wishes Out West Book 6, Mail Order Brides
Lillian Ruth
Her match is a rancher named Gib McCall—quiet, hardworking, and short on sentiment. Mary boards the westbound train with a heart full of determination and a satchel full of dreams. But the windswept plains are harsher than she expected, and Gib is nothing like the gentleman she hoped for. He’s distant, stern, and seems more concerned with his cattle than with the woman who just became his wife.
Gib has his reasons. Life has been unkind. He’s tried to find a partner before, but each woman left, unwilling to weather the isolation, hard work, and his silent ways. He didn’t expect Mary to be any different, even if her smile tugs at something long-buried in his chest.
At first, their days are strained and quiet. Mary struggles with the chores, the biting cold, and Gib’s walls. But she doesn’t give up. Her gentle presence slowly warms the lonely ranch, baking pies, planting small flowers by the windows, and coaxing laughter from the neighbor children. Even the grizzled Gib finds himself watching her more closely, longing to believe that love might grow again.
Together, they discover that sometimes the best gifts are the ones you never planned for—and that a heart once shattered can find its greatest joy in the most unlikely places.
Christmas Beginnings Wrapped in Faith & Love is a tender Old West romance of second chances, healing, and the quiet magic of love rekindled by faith, resilience, and the spirit of the season.
