Dorthy’s Disasters: A Ryders Legacy Historical Book (novella)

George H. McVey
 THE ALPHABET MAIL-ORDER BRIDES   Book Four

Dorthy James is convinced she is bad luck, a Jonah, a pariah. When she’s around disasters happen to her, to others, all around her. Things break, people get hurt and there’s nothing she can do about it. The safest place for her is in her classroom at The Wigg School and Foundling Home or in the garden. Those two places are the only places nothing bad happens.

But now even those safe places have been taken from her. The only mother she ever knew as an orphan is sick and maybe dying. The school is closing and Madame Wigg insists she and all the other teachers become mail-order brides out west.
How is she going to survive when her husband-to-be finds out she is a walking magnet for trouble? Case in point: an accident, and a groom in prison.

A new groom and several disasters later, can Dorthy learn to live a new way? Will she learn that love is possible for her or will she end up alone and hiding from Dorthy’s Disasters?

George McVey always wanted to be a Superhero, sadly no radioactive storms or animals have been a part of his life. One day while spinning a tall tale for his family, some suggested once again that with all his experiences in ministry, and his imagination he should be writing books. This time it was like lightning struck him and he decided why not.

Since then George has been hard at work using his creative imagination and writing several books. He's still adding to his bibliography to this day. You can find them all on his Amazon.com page

George lives in the wonderful state of Almost Heaven West Virginia. A few years ago he moved from a single family home to a deluxe apartment in the sky, well the fourth floor anyway. He lives with his wife of thirty years, and a service dog named Daisy Mae. He is visited often by his three children and two grandsons.

If you ever come to visit him you will probably find him setting in his lazy boy recliner or at his desk in the corner office, working on some writing project. If not a teaching book,then a novel. If he isn't working on a novel either then he will be working on a short story or blog post. If he isn't doing either of those then he is either asleep or eating his other two favorite past times.
