Laurent Fletcher needs help. He is a widower with two young children that are out of control, and, despite all the help he has, he really needs someone dedicated to the kids. In an effort to help, his father hires him a British Nanny. Emma Peabody is ready for a change, and Montana seems just the place for a fresh start. She quickly falls in love with the children, giving them stability and love, and helping them to connect with their Father. She also hopes to help Laurent have a better relationship with his children. Laurent is still in love with his wife, and has spent the past two years mourning her and letting life pass him by. As Emma and Laurent's friendship and attraction grows, Laurent starts looking for ways to keep Emma in their lives, permanently.This was a very sweet tale, with a wonderful cast of characters. The children tug at your heart, and both Laurent and Emma have personal pain to deal with.The Unexpected Bride by Joanne Walsh is a charming and emotional addition to the Montana Brides series, and a fun return to Marietta and its inhabitants. Every visit brings the reader a stronger connection to this fictional town. I love the way each author's individual voice blends new characters into the town.
