More Than Words an Say by Karen Witemeyer

After fulfilling a pledge to a dying friend, Zacharias Hamilton is finally free. No family entanglements. No disappointing those around him. Just the quiet bachelor existence he's always craved. Until fate snatches his freedom away when the baker of his favorite breakfast bun is railroaded by the city council. Despite not wanting to get involved, he can't turn a blind eye to her predicament . . . or her adorable dimples.

Abigail Kemp needs a man's name on her bakery's deed. A marriage of convenience seems the best solution . . . if it involves a man she can control. That person definitely isn't the stoic lumberman who oozes silent confidence whenever he enters her shop. Control Zacharias Hamilton? She can't even control her pulse when she's around him.

When vows are spoken, Abigail's troubles should be over. Yet threats to the bakery worsen, and darker dangers hound her sister. Can she put ever more trust in Zach without losing her dreams of independence?

This is a continuation of the Hamilton family.  Zach feels he doesn't deserve to be happy because of what he did years ago.  Abigail doesn't think anyone will want her because she sees herself as plain.  The only thing she has going for her is she owns and operates a successful bakery.  The city council makes it impossible to stay in business unless she turns ownership over to a man.  This is where the fun starts.  I was pleased how Zach's story turned out.  I hope in the next book we hear Rosalind's story. 

I was given this book by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any way.
