The Marriage Bargain ~ Review

The Marriage Bargain
Family Blessings #4
By Stephanie Dees

Jules Sheehan opened her home to the two children of her best friend following a tragic accident that left them orphans. Providing a home for Eleanor and Emma is something she never thought would become a reality but she's determined to keep them safe from their grandmother and she'll do anything to keep that promise. She just never imagined she'd have to get married to keep it.

Cam Quinn hasn't been back to Red Hill Springs since he was kicked out of the family home when he was 15 years old by an angry stepfather. He last saw Glory when she was 6 years old and the time he lost with her is a regret that he is determined to not repeat her daughters. When he offered to help Jules with the girls he never imagined that his assistance would mean getting married to Jules and having the family he had always wanted.

But how long will this marriage last when it is in name only? Cam and Jules are determined to do what is best for the girls and convince everyone looking in that they have the stable loving family that is needed to keep Eleanor and Emma away from Cam and Glory's mother. But will they lose their hearts to each other and become a true family? Or will their differences keep them apart?

This is the fourth book in the Family Blessings series and is perhaps my favorite. There is just so much that Jules and Cam are having to deal with - personal loss, grieving children, maintaining their careers, and a marriage of convenience. And then the rest of the Sheehan siblings are dealing with their own lives that have been unexpectedly blessed as well. And then there is Bertie mom to the whole Sheehan bunch who has a surprise of her own for the family and will have a far-reaching impact on Red Hill Springs - an impact that just adds to Jules stress and burden at a time when she's about maxed out. This was a true delight to read as we finally get to know Jules better.

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book by the author with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion - all thoughts expressed are my own.
