Book Description

Carrie Montgomery had grown up with seven adoring older brothers, and she was used to getting her way rather easily. Joshua Greene was only looking for a hardworking, practical mail-order bride to help with the farm and feed and clothe his children. Yet from the moment Carrie saw his photograph, saw his devastatingly handsome, sorrowful smile, the petite and pampered beauty knew she was the perfect wife for him.

Josh didn't see it that way. Wed by proxy, he refused to be charmed by his new bride's blond curls and effervescent laughter, or impressed by her trappings of wealth...even if his son and daughter believed she was a fairy princess come to life. He was furious—and ready to send her packing, until a near tragedy convinced him that her beauty was more than skin-deep. But even after he had yielded to the wild desire that surged between them, Josh could not admit how much he truly needed her. Then an old scandal threatened to re-emerge, and he realized that he could lose her forever.

My Thoughts

In this next installment of the Montgomery family, we meet Carrie Montogomery. She is the baby sister to Ring and Jamie Montogomery who we met in Mountain Laurel. 

Carrie is a woman who gets what she wants. Being the younger sister she has learned to get what she wants. However, she is kind and generous. So when she sees a picture of Joshua Greene she immediately decides he needs her and travels to become his wife. 

Carrie isn't who Josh expects when he orders a bride. He wants his kids to be taken care of but he is hiding a dark secret. But when Carrie crashes his life he soon learns that the only way to keep her is to tell his story. 

I absolutely loved this story I loved that even though Carrie was a pampered rich girl she had a heart of gold. She wasn't afraid of work though she did have her own way of getting things done. I also loved that she adored Josh's kids from the moment she saw them. 

This story was a really wonderful one and I devoured it a day. It was cute, heartwarming, and full of twists. Definitely loved it and getting to see Ring and Jamie again was a joy.
