Marrying Kate A Marriage of Convenience Christian Romance edition by Kimberly Rae Jordan Religion Spirituality eBooks
Katie has been caring for her four nieces and nephews since her sister and bother-in-law (Jen & Steve) were killed in plane crash along with her parents. Then she learns a couple months later that Steve's brother Jared (whom she has always secretly loved) was killed in an car accident. Imagine her shock when he shows up at the door. She then tells him about the plane crash. Jared also learns that there is a court hearing coming up and his parents want the children. Deciding the best course of action was for Jared to marry and legally adopt the kids, the lawyer suggests Kate. She is NOT what Jared had in mind for a wife. She seems to be career minded and yet she quit her job. He thought she never wanted kids and yet she seems to pour herself into these children. For Katie, marrying Jared would be a dream come true if it weren't for the fact that it wouldn't be a marriage of love. Can God take these two very different souls and truly marry them together? To complicate matters someone is trying to kill Jared and wants to use Kate to flush him out? Is there faith and perhaps love strong enough to get them through?This was an excellent story. I love the whole theme of "marriage of convenience". Some stories that carry this theme find the lead characters bitter and somewhat hateful to one another. Not so with this story. Although there is apprehension on both Jared and Katie's part you see them trying to make the situation work while trying to honor God and each other. Jared and Katie are both believers but you see the struggle in them both as they try to follow God's standard. Both are dealing past things. I loved the dialog between Jared and Katie. Jared made my heart go pitter-pat. You can see what it was that Katie saw in him. Katie was someone who was very smart but felt totally lacking in the things see deemed valuable. The author really allowed you to experience the deep emotions in each of their hearts. I feel like I lived the story with them. I wouldn't classify this as an edge-of-your-seat read but the mystery surrounding who was after Jared is not revealed until the end. I really like that in a story. I would highly recommend A Family for Kate to those who love a great story with a great message.
NOTE: This was previously published as 'A Family for Kate' by LeAnne Hill.

Marrying Kate A Marriage of Convenience Christian Romance edition by Kimberly Rae Jordan Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
I must say that I usually read through reviews on a book before I even give them a try. There were some reviews that made me consider not giving this book a try. However, I am so glad I did! At first it seemed Jared was just going to constantly compare Kate to her sister Jen and reiterate her shortfalls throughout the book. But he didn't. He actually turned out very sweet and loving towards her. It was a getting to know you story.
There were a few things that did bother me, like there wasn't as much suspense as I thought there would be and they just jumped right into the marriage bed together without really knowing each other. I would have thought they would have gotten to know each other first before conjugating the marriage. But other than that I really enjoyed this story. A very good and sweet read.
There were some things in this book that irritated me at first, but the more I read the more I let it all go and just enjoyed this sweet romance. Normally a lot of preaching in a book distracts me form the story, but this was very well done and flowed nicely with everything that happened. I found myself reflecting on the guilt I hold and the reasons for it. I found this book had me reflecting on things in a positive way. There was some awkwardness in the writing of the conversations between characters. I found myself thinking no one would talk like that. The kids just seemed too perfect but I realized as I read she didn't want that to be the focus of the story and when it did matter she included it. The main character was very insecure and it bugged me but it really would be how she felt with all she had gone through. Overall I liked this story and was glad I picked it up.
I enjoyed this book and finished it in one sitting as it wasn't very long, but I felt that there were quite a few "loose ends" in the story as well as aspects of the story which were underdeveloped.
I feel that these parts of the story could be redeemed by readdressing them in a follow-up novel perhaps.
Some examples are the grandparents who sued for custody - and Jared who never gets to forgiving them with his own childhood issues - but what happened with their relationship was barely touched on.
What about Jared's work partner from his previous job - what was his story - is he alive or really dead? REALLY wanted to know about that and was disappointed when nothing came of it.
What about the 'baddie' who was arrested - there is another whole story there that was barely even mentioned, when he and Jared worked together.
Just too many things started on but too underdeveloped for me and not given a satisfying and well-rounded conclusion.
However, the love story part of the book was very pleasant and sweet.
Kate is a hard working woman with so much to offer. When tragedy struck, she didn't think twice about filling the role of a single parent to four children who desparately needed her. And when Jared came knocking on her door when she had learned he was dead, she thought she was dreaming, because she had a phone call saying Jared had been killed. But in Jared's job there were men who through jealousy thought Jared was going to get their job. Kate and Jared both wanted custody of their sister and brother's children, but so did Jared's parents. Jared in no way wanted that to happen. And in Steve and Jen's Will they chose Jared to have custody of their four children, should anything happen to them. Jared and Kate agreed to marry so they could raise the children together, and this they did. But they added the most important component to their marriage of convenience, which was, and is LOVE. Through adversity they moved on with their lives, and in due time they had another child to complete their family. A Son, named Steven Jared, after an uncle and the babies father. Even though Kate wasn't anything like her sister, Kate took some cooking lessons from Darlene, and Jared and the children fell in love with Kate for who she was. Both Kate and Jared's faith carried them through the tough spots.
Katie has been caring for her four nieces and nephews since her sister and bother-in-law (Jen & Steve) were killed in plane crash along with her parents.
