Martha Jonas can't seem to help feeling a bit sorry for herself. Ethan, the man she plans to marry, has put his foot down, telling her what she must and must not do. It's infuriating! Martha must consider whether an independent woman is a good match for a dominant man. She's determined to show Ethan that she isn't a mindless bundle of ruffles and bows and can take care of herself. That, of course, is before all hell breaks loose.

In the space of a few days, everything changes. Will the last bride bow to convention and accept the love and authority of the man who offers what might be her last chance for wedded bliss?
