Young Romina Holmström is growing up in the heart of Boston, 1872. Her widower father, Luden is struggling to make ends meet by arranging a marriage between a wealthy Nebraska farmer and an English woman whose family is low on fortune but rich in title. The English woman, Evangeline Allum, is straight off the boat from Liverpool and into Luden’s home when her “sea sickness” turns out to be deadly.

Afraid for his daughter and his own financial strife, Luden forces his beautiful Romina to take Evangeline’s place as the farmer’s future wife. But when Romina meets Raymond Humes she sees a pompous, over-privileged man who is used to getting his way.

If she is to remove herself from a marriage to a man she cannot love, she is faced with exposing her father as a liar and possibly worse. Romina has to decide if she will pretend to be Evangeline for the rest of her life or if she will run from the arrogant Raymond, who seems to be hiding a secret of his own.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully written and absolutely intriguing.

This is a very well written story that will take you back to the 1800, wherein arranged marriage was a norm. I like the twists of events in here. Young Romina showed up in front of Raymond Humes and pretended to be the woman whom Raymond is set to marry. Beautifully written and absolutely intriguing.

3.0 out of 5 stars Different story line, but needs editing for the errors
Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2017

The story line was different, which kept you guessing what would happen. Unfortunately you need to read the other 2 books in the series to get to the end of what would happen. There were many errors throughout the book that a good editor would have fixed. I was also disappointed that there is nothing about Nebraska in the book which is titled "A Nebraska Mail Order Bride Series." Other than saying Nebraska was flat, which much of it is, there was no clue to what part of Nebraska it takes place in, no cities mentioned. This story could have happened anywhere; the author did no research about Nebraska to make it different from a story anywhere else in the country. As a Nebraskan, that disappointed me! I also read the next book in the series, and it does not go very far into what the conclusion will be. I am not buying the third book, it just wasn't worth the time or money to finish.

4.0 out of 5 stars I enjoyed this book and liked the characters
Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2016

I enjoyed this book and liked the characters, BUT, there were too many unanswered questions or things that seemed to have been left out. I then started on Book 2, but it started after the wedding that was already covered in Book 1. So I then scanned through the entire book and it was a repeat. Then I went to Book 3 .... same thing, already covered in Book 1. Book 1 is a standalone -- book 2 and 3 do not add anything to the story.

I wish I'd noticed that it was only 64 pages long when I bought this because I was enjoying the story and then the book ends but the story doesn't finish. I am just saying that you will have to pay for the other books to hopefully get a HEA.

An enjoyable historical romance. Not the usual as there is a death and a female pretending to be that female - Secrets and Doubts - just like the title.

It has a surprising twist in the story not far in and I was wondering if the heroine would pull it off in impersonating someone else. She did a great job without the groom to be being none the wiser.
