A delightful lighthearted novel that lifted my spirits. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and was captured from the moment I began. There are some great life and family lessons in the story of this large family.

If you have ever watched the old film Seven Brides for Seven Brothers or seen the play of the same story you will love this story! A modern retelling of the classic built into the small town of Cherish, Montana tells the story of a woman who fears she will never find someone to truly love. Anneka Walker does a fantastic job of pulling the story into modern times without messing with the details that make the original so beloved. I loved how the characters fit the roles of all the different brothers and eventual wives. Anneka Walker even managed to pull in the sobbing women story from the bible without making this an over the top Christian story.

The cover of this story fits perfectly in line with the fun light-hearted story this is. I couldn't put it down and loved everything about it.

I grew up watching seven brides for seven brothers so when I heard about this story I was ecstatic. This story takes all the best parts of the old movie, but modernizes it and makes it so wonderful! I have read a few of Anneka R. Walker's books and this story is by far my favorite! This story is unique because a seven brides for seven brothers retelling is new, but it also is just such a fun story. I love how the names are similar to the movie, but not exactly. The plot follows the movie loosely, but by modernizing it transforms the story into something completely new and diverting. I loved how Aiden and Camille work through the difficulties in their marriage and you are able to be inside their heads to see their thought processes. I think that there are definitely parts of this story that everyone can apply to their own lives. I truly loved this story and am so excited for the world to get to enjoy it!

I love the original and thought I would give this a try. It was sweet and silly. Some roll your eye moments but some nice ones too. I was frustrated that the leading couple got so little time together. Everything wrapped up with a nice bow:}

You had me at “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers inspired”! That has long been one of my favorite musicals or just movies in general and I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve seen it! So when I saw this book was a contemporary retelling of the story I jumped at the chance to read it.
Like with most retellings you have to bear with a bit of things that are a little farfetched and/or on the cheesy side, but if you can suspend reality for a bit it was a lighthearted fun read!
I was actually impressed with how many things the author was able to incorporate from the musical into the modern day story. They didn’t play out the same way but the nods to the original were easy and fun to spot!
The characters were all entertaining and definitely had some traits from their musical counterparts. Because there were so many of them I didn’t feel like there was any one great swoony romance but there were sparks all around which was fun! I also think the author did a great job of letting us get to know all of the characters to some degree despite there being so many of them!
All in all this was a fun story that yes, had me groaning at the corny a few times, but was all in good fun and my love for the original made it enjoyable to read!

Such a lot of fun
A quick and unexpected proposal. A faster wedding than anyone planned. A surprise houseful of five unmarried men. A group of sweet, single women. A boatload of miscommunication and missteps. All of that blends for a fun, funny and, at times all too real picture of life. Aiden has spent the last ten years raising his brothers after the death of his parents. Now the youngest is leaving on a deployment, three are getting ready to graduate from college, and the remaining two are well on their way to established careers. With everything settling and Aiden’s career moving forward, he decides it is time to get married. Camille is living in student housing while teaching at the college but is about to be kicked out at the end of the semester when she turns twenty-seven and can no longer live there. After a few dates, Camille mentions her impending housing crisis to Aiden and he quickly suggests that since they get along well, they should get married and she could live at his house, not mentioning the other five men/brothers living there. Thus, begins a fun, laugh filled, romantic, and wacky story of reality, expectations, and unplanned or under planned events. This book will keep you engaged, smiling and frequently laughing. I received an early copy and this is my honest review.

I adored this book! I've always oved Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, so I was thrilled to see this fun new take on one of my favorites! The characters were charming. The plot was well-paced, captivating, and engaging to the very end. Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of the copy.

Camille and Aiden have a whirlwind romance and get married. But then she finds out she is living with him and all his brothers. She is not happy after she has just moved out of a messy flat whe had to share, and decides her best plan of action is to get them married off so they move out. She attempts to set the brothers up with her friends, but things don't run smoothly, and neither does her marriage. Will everything work out in the end?

This is a Christian romance, but that is not in the current description.

The description of this book grabbed my attention, I was hoping for a fun rom com read. This is a solid read, not so much fun rom -com, and though Camille stands up for herself I still got a feeling of her being used/ walked over. It was just an "innocent" miscommunication situation (which I felt was shady) that even being Christian and doing what path you feel God is putting you one doesn't make this all okay. I just felt the whole situation with Camille and Aiden felt off, I would have liked to know more about their time together as teen's too.

Solid read, but know what you are walking into.

This was such a cute play on 7 brides for 7 brothers! I’ve always loved that movie, such a classic! Now to have a modern twist to it was really fun to read! Loved it!
