Goodreads asked Jan Elder:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Jan Elder My single ( and slightly quirky) brother has been a missionary in the Philippines for 30 years. He has always said he's too busy to date and wouldn't it be nice if he could just send out a marriage application? It would save a lot of time and he could choose the best applicant before he had to meet anyone. And thus. the idea was planted.
