The Sinful Bride is a story about sin, and redemption. While it followed a pretty typical formula (as I've read a contemporary romance with essentially the same plot including the twist) with proper karma payoff at the end (the bad guys get their comeuppance) and the HEA.
Cassie was engaged to the man of her dreams until he disappeared on her wedding day... and left her pregnant, and this was 1902. Cassie was bundled up and sent to a faraway conservative town to aunts that hated her for being a sinner, always being whispered about. She had been studying to become a nurse, but that's obviously no longer possible. She can only be menial help. And the only one kind to her in town was the young doctor, Will, who even offered to train her to be his nurse. But can love survive when the entire town is against them?
Good twists at the end, even though the plot was somewhat tropish. And the religious intolerance in this book was... devastating, though again, a bit stereotypical.
