Camille Kelly is in real danger of becoming an old maid—at least by Cherish, Montana, standards. She has all but given up on finding Mr. Right—until her broken laptop leads her to Aiden Peterson, a tall, dark, and handsome computer genius. Camille would never have believed her magic moment was right around the corner, but after two whirlwind weeks, she has a ring on her finger and has happily ever after in sight. However, she soon discovers Aiden is part of a daunting package deal...
As the eldest of seven brothers, Aiden has never had a problem living under the same roof as his rambunctious siblings. When he falls for Camille, he is confident she’ll fit right into his family’s already bursting home. He thought wrong. Aiden and Camille’s storybook romance comes to a screeching halt when she discovers her new living situation. Not willing to submit to a life mothering a bunch of grown men, Camille has only one option: she embarks on a campaign to improve her new brothers-in-law and marry them off. And what better candidates for wives than her own best friends?

Review
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers was one of the first mother/daughter movie that I watched with my mom when I was twelve. It was also my introduction to musicals. I also enjoy Anneka Walker's novels especially Love in Disguise and Refining the Debutante. Needless to say, I was excited to read the retelling in Brides and Brothers by Anneka Walker and jumped on the chance to be a part of the blog tour. The retelling follows the major scenes in the musical but in a modern and modernly acceptable way that doesn't end up breaking any laws or causing the FBI to step in. Most of the major scenes are retold, however, the characters and the approach are fresh and original. It's a cute and fun romantic comedy. I did feel like some of the Christian elements felt a little forced rather than a natural flow, but sometimes in real-life conversations it seems a little forced too. All of the characters stood out, were likable and had their own personalities, which was masterfully done considering how many characters were in the book. This story was very well written and you see the strength in Anneka Walker's writing ability in this book. I would recommend checking it out and adding it to your TBR pile. To learn more, click here.
