I was not sure if Rose Gordon would be able to top Her Sudden Groom but with Her Secondhand Groom she did.  When I finished the book I just had the biggest grin on  my face because it was such a good story.Drake has 3 daughters who are in desperate need of both a mother and a governess.  When his carrage gets stuck one day he happens to meet Juliet out with her younger siblings.  Juliet delivers a set down to him for letting his girls run wild while he tries to get his carrage unstuck so he has her watch his girls for him.  After he picks up his daughters he decides that the perfect solution is to marry so he can have both a mother and governess or "motherness" for his girls.  The only problem is he does not inform the bride of this plan.Drake running with an idea without both thinking it through and talking about it with Juliet causes them to have many arguments in which Juliet will put Drake in his place.  Drake must figure out how to make up all his stupid comments and plans to Juliet and also come to terms with his 1st wife.As with the rest of Rose Gordon's book this one has lots of witty dialoge, a strong heroine, a hero who is not a Rake.  I'm very much looking foward to the conclusion of Groom seires and to see what Rose has next for her readers.
