Christian fiction, 1883. Can be read as a stand-alone. Emma is a socialite, not well liked by the other young ladies and their mothers. She sets off on a return trip home to Portland and inadvertently gets stranded and taken captive by not-too-bright outlaws. Widowed Peter is searching for the outlaws who rustled his sheep, and subsequently has to take them and Emma back to his summer camp. Emma doesn't know a thing about cooking or housekeeping, but she is given those tasks as well as watching Peter's young son, Robby. Emma and Robby bond almost instantly. Lots of humor as Emma tries to prepare meals using only a cookbook for instruction. There was a murder added to the plot. A nice read as Emma begins to see herself as others do and truly puts forth an effort to be a better person. Of course love finds its way into the story.
