"Duncan is looking for a bride to help him to run his farm. He would be happy to find someone very plain so that he wouldn't feel like he had to fall in love. The woman he chooses (I can't remember her name and my copy is out on loan) is beautiful and athletic. She is determined to make him fall in love. It is a very happy ending and there is a good amount of healthy sex."
