The Mail Order Papa series by Marlene Bierworth flips the typical mail-order bride setup. Here, women with children are the ones placing advertisements for husbands who can also be fathers. The 22 books, published in 2023 and 2024, each match a woman with a man of a particular profession, from A Stagecoach Robber for Rosie to A Cattleman for Cathleen.
The reversed premise gives Bierworth fresh ground within her established Western romance framework, with the children’s needs adding stakes to each matchmaking story.
