Sookie's Silence (Westward Home and Hearts Mail-Order Brides Book16) Kindle Edition

by Marisa Masterson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars (335)
The accident that kills her parents leaves Sookie mute. She grasps at the chance to be a mail-order bride.

The only catch is that she must also be able to teach school. Since Sookie taught school for a number of years that is no problem. Hopefully in Nebraska, people will welcome any trained teacher--even one who cannot speak.

Will her surly groom send her back on the first train east when he realizes Sookie is silent? And who is the man who shadows her every movement in her new hometown? Suddenly, Sookie's silence stands in her way of both happiness and safety.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

The smiling teacher, that's what her students called this Michigan author. Marisa spent twenty-two years teaching writing and literature, loving almost every minute of it. After a disability kept her from teaching, she wondered how she could still impact others.

Fast forward to 2025. After penning sixty-five books, she loves the bond she has forged with the readers who enjoy her blend of sweet romance and suspense-filled action. You can find her hanging out in the Sweet Wild West Reads Facebook group. She is a real writer, not AI, and would love to connect with you.

    This was a satisfying story. Disabilities can be overcome to some degree with determination by the disabled! That disabled person is a special human being and is most always a loving person. If you can't love a disabled person, you probably cannot truly love! This was an exceptional love story and I would recommend this book as very satisfying!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Historical romance
    Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This was my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it. I had chosen it because it was recommended for one of my reading challenges. I needed a book that had a deaf or mute character.
    Sookie had lost her ability to speak because of an accident she was in. She and her sister were struggling to make ends meet when she was given the opportunity to move west and become a wife and mother to a widower and his young daughter. She was also needed as a school teacher for the town in Nebraska.
    Unbeknownst to the sisters, there was someone who had some nefarious plans for them. I loved this added suspense in this marriage of convenience story. I also loved seeing Sookie and Onie's relationship develop.
    There were a couple of things that bothered me a bit, so I did lower my rating by one star, but all in all this was a great story, and a quick read

    This story is a great example of how God works everything for good for those who love him.
    Sookie was in a carriage accident with her parents. They were killed and she lost the ability to speak. Sookie created signs with her sister to enable them to communicate while Sookie recovered.
    Unique characters and a sweet romance with a mystery to solve make this a book I'll read again. Excited for the next book in the series!

    I really loved this book! It is an unusual story where the young woman Sookie suffers the loss of her voice as result of carriage accident in which her parents are killed. She and her younger sister create her own sign language. Mystery leads her to love, a new teaching job. Wonderful plot and characters.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Sweet Love Story
    Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2023
    Format: Kindle
    Sookie’s Silence is a sweet, touching mail order bride story. A dash of danger and intrigue make it an absorbing read. Set in 1871, it is not your usual mail order bride story in that the bride is mute. The fast-moving plot and compelling, engaging characters kept my interest from beginning to end. I love Onie and Sookie as individuals and as a couple. Ms. Masterson treats Sookie’s muteness with thoughtfulness focusing on her strengths as a mother and a teacher. I also adore Wren and her devotion to her sister. The strong faith element is inspiring, and the romantic element is delightful and heartwarming. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it especially for mail order bride and historical fiction fans.
