A Temporary Betrothal
Pregnant widow Ellie Jameson is hiding a secret: her betrothal is a sham to keep her safe from her interfering in-laws. It’s simple friendship that prompts her reclusive boss to pose as her fiancé. But can Ellie keep her feelings for Alexander Copeland from developing into something more?
When he moved to Gatlinburg after losing his wife and child, Alexander had one rule: stay out of other people’s lives. Easier said than done with the café owner’s eternally optimistic cook interrupting his enforced solitude. He only intended to protect Ellie, not propose to her. But with a little trust, and a helping of forgiveness, this temporary arrangement could be a recipe for lasting happiness…

Marilyn's thoughts: This historical story brought two lives together that had
their previous marriage end with grief of losing their spouses. Alexander
didn’t really take notice of what was happening at The Plum, his restaurant in Gatlinburg , TN
This book is number 11 in the Smokey Mountains Matches but
can be read as a standalone. I found this one at our library used library sale
thus a review was not required.
