Patchwork Family in the Outback by Soraya Lane


4 STARS

I liked Poppy and how she cared about the kids she would teach even before she met them. Poppy Carter is making lots of major changes in her life. She is moving from the city to teaching in the outback as the only teacher. Poppy's life had fallen apart with finding her husband in bed with someone else.

Harrison is a single father with two cute kids. Harrison is bitter with women as his ex-wife left him and his two little kids. Harrison lives on the family ranch that has been in the family for generations. But if they could not hire a teacher than their town would die. He would move so his kids would not have to go to boarding school for elementary school.

He decides he will do anything to help Poppy fit in and feel like she could stay. But he does not plan to date her.
Poppy plans to stay away from all men but then she finds herself making excuses to see Harrison.
Their was one love scene that I skipped over. easy fast read. Gives you a look at life in smalltown in Australia outback. I liked it.
and would read another book by Soraya Lane in the future.

I was given this ebook to read and asked in return to give honest review of it by Netgalley and Harlequin
Pub Date Sep 3 2013 Harlequin Romance 256 pages ISBN: 0373742584

Description below taken off of Netgalley.

The final piece of his family puzzle?
Arriving in Bellaroo Creek, teacher Poppy Carter isn't quite prepared for the hard task ahead of her. But a school under threat and a class of unruly children is a breeze compared to single father Harrison Black, who's proving more of a challenge than she could ever have anticipated!

Since his wife abandoned him and their children, Harrison has learned the art of keeping his distance—and new teacher Poppy doesn't seem to understand boundaries! But when a storm traps them both together, Harrison begins to wonder whether Poppy just might make the perfect addition to their little family….
