Marly Akers's life has fallen apart. She has no job, she lost her groom and is pregnant. She has no where to go except Marietta Montana, but going home is never easy. When she meets Drake Everett, her high school crush, everything gets harder. She can't believe how much her hometown has changed. Where will her life go from here? This story is very emotional and touching. I was drawn into Marly's life as she worked through her pain and uncertainty. Her mother, Angelina, wanted her to find the success and happiness that had eluded her. Can she live up to her mother's expectations? Drake wants to forget their past and show Marly that he cares for her and the baby. I loved Drake. He is a wonderful hero with his principles and his tenderness. Marly is a feisty heroine who won't let life's setbacks defeat her. Their romance is special. It is filled with  gentleness that is  based on love and caring. I couldn't put this book down. I always enjoy  visiting Marietta and her people. The Substitute Bride is a great addition to the Montana Born Brides series.
