A Pretty Bride (Mail Order Romance Short) - Plot & Excerpts
She'd always been acutely aware of her looks ever since she was a little girl. People were always making comments to her mother, saying things like, “She'll never have to worry about catching a husband, that one!” and “She'll have an easy life, it's always easier for the ones who have a pretty face.” They spoke with admiration and envy of her dark, silky hair, her sapphire eyes and smooth skin. . Though most people saw the possession of a pretty face as a benefit. To Josie, however, it only brought problems. What people saw as blessings, Josie saw as a curse. She had few friends because most of the girls in her small Pennsylvania town were jealous of her, partly because of all the attention she got from the boys in town. The last thing that Josie wanted was attention; she was shy and didn't like standing out. After school, she'd hurry home and hide away in her room, reading books, her only solace. Unfortunately for Josie, though, the unwanted attention carried over to her home life.
