| Plot Summary of Tempted |
"Frontier mail-order bride isn't what anybody expected, least of all the straight-laced, by-the-book preacher who sent for her. But underneath the unappealing exterior lies a butterfly with a big heart and extra-ordinary powers waiting to be released. Only love and patience plus a whole lot of humor can bring these two mismatched lovers together."
Susan Bontly, Resident Scholar
