Julia Cavanaugh loves her life taking care of the orphan girls in New York. So when her dear headmistress announces that the orphanage is closing, Julia is stunned and worried. She learns that the girls are going to homes out west via the Orphan Train and Julia is going to accompany them. What an adventure! Julia looks forward to seeing the west and then returning home to New York to work. What she doesn't expect is a surprise... in the form of a gentleman who has purchased her as a mail order bride.
Stuck with no money in Lonesome Prairie, Julia is rescued by a local family and given a place to stay until the next train comes through.... whenever that may be. Julia spends her time getting to know the west, the families there and avoiding her "husband." As her heart tenders toward this harsh land and the people there, Julia begins to wonder if God has a plan for her in Lonesome Prairie and a husband too.
