A Convenient Christmas Bride

GIVEAWAY

GIBSON, RHONDA
A CONVENIENT CHRISTMAS BRIDE

Hitched for the Holidays  

After a pupil's prank forces Anna Mae Leland to take shelter with a widowed sheriff during a blizzard, she loses her teaching job—but gains a fiancé. Josiah Miller needs a mother for his twin daughters and Anna Mae needs to protect her reputation. This business-only arrangement means the recently jilted Anna Mae need never risk the folly of love again.

Josiah has long admired the town's spirited schoolteacher from afar. In close quarters, she's an ideal friend and helpmate. Yet Christmas's arrival brings a gift neither dared hope for—a second chance at love and happiness…but only if they'll forego what's practical and follow their hearts.

My Review:

Cutest cover ever!!! A heartwarming romance filled with humour in unexpected places not to mention the antics of Josiah's adorable twins...and Christmas just around the corner. I love marriage of convenience stories and this one is a great example of why. The tenuous uncertainty that comes when two people venture into a second chance at love kept me on the edge of my seat. Loved the push/pull that ensued as Josiah and Anna Mae try to find their balance in a marriage that suddenly isn't all that convenient. A scrumptious read that will lift your spirits and keep your smiling.

  8. Marriage of convenience is my top favorite too! I don't know why, but maybe for the reason you mentioned here.....the push/pull of trying to carve out a life with someone you don't know in circumstances that you may or may not have created! Makes for a delightful story when you see love eventually blossom :-) Add to it, two adorable little girl-angels and you have an irresistible mix!
