Lying for love is never easy, but sometimes it's necessary.

The Ackermans are about to lose their farm...
They have no hope. No money. Nothing left to lose except each other.

When Sarah discovers that her youngest sister, Carrie, is planning to become a mail order bride to save the family land, she makes the rash decision to take her place. 

When Sarah arrives in Montana and meets John Bowman, she knows him and his children aren't ready for her...especially when they learn about her scarred useless arm.
And... John hasn't even told his children he's getting remarried. 

John's temper is hard to control but not as hard Sarah's brazen behavior. 
She's a mail order bride, yet she acts as if she has free reign of his house.

Sarah never expected to fall in love...not as a mail order bride.
It was just a contract. Nothing more.

However, there's something about John that draws Sarah to him. 

But... if she tells John the truth, she'll lose him forever. 
And... if she says nothing, she'll never be able to live with herself. 

Can Sarah fix this mess and still save her family's farm, or is it already too late?

!!!Undergoing Editing!!! *previously known as The Red Queen Effect* "It's strange what desires could make foolish people do. I'd never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you, And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you." ~ Wicked Game by Chris Isaak There were many times that I could remember hearing the stories about people falling in love or meeting their one true love. Stories that had allowed me to fantasize about meeting my true love, the one that fate had chosen for me. However, it seemed like it truly was never meant to be, according to my grandmother, "Love is a Queen's greatest weakness. Remember, my dear granddaughter, you are a Princess now but you will soon be a Queen who will rule with an iron fist and an empty heart." But was love truly a weakness? According to the stories that I have read and heard around the castle, love seemed to be something magical and incredible, especially if it was true love. So, how could someone determine it to be a weakness? It wasn't until I landed in Neverland that I had to find out the truth the hard way, in the most excruciating and heart-wrenching way possible. Yet, It was my fault after all, I decided to make a game out of it and someone else decided to use that to their advantage. If I was given the chance to change something from my past it would have been to prevent myself from all of the heartache that was to come. Maybe then I could have saved myself the trouble of having to rip out my own heart. But you know what they say, "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." I am the daughter of the Evil Queen, the granddaughter of the former Queen of Hearts, there is no such thing as a happy ending for people like me. What a Wicked Game life plays. *Comments and votes are always welcomed. ** I do not own Once Upon A Time, only my characters Clara, Ravenna, Kingsley, and Flynn and any ideas for this story.
