Tara Montgomery is nobody's fool. She's known love 'em and leave 'em types before—heck, she was left pregnant by one. There's no way charmingDylan Ross can tempt her into anything. Except the womanizing bachelor has more in common with Tara than she'd like. He's just discovered he's a father to a four-year-old girl. Single parenthood is tough, and Dylan needs the daycare employee's help.

But Tara has her own problems. In a vicious custody battle, a high school diploma and empty bank account are no defense. Throw in "single working mother," and Tara could lose her son. That's the only reason she's considering Dylan's outlandish proposal. Marriage may be their only solution, but Tara is going into it with her eyes open. Her son has to come first—no matter what her heart wants.

    Well this one was a delightful surprise!

    Tara is a single mom who works in a daycare, Dylan is a reformed-playboy who suddenly finds himself the father of a little girl who had been kept secret from him. Aside from these two children, there's also a whole gang of nieces and nephews in tow. Tara and Dylan come up with "The Marriage Solution" to fight off an impending custody battle for Tara's son.

    This is really a story about family as much as it is about Tara and Dylan finding each other. Reading the scenes about the children playing with one another in the yard and getting into scrapes just made me think back fondly about my own family and summers at grandmother's with cousins running everywhere and water fights breaking out just because. Every character in the book, grown-up and child, is developed with their own personalities and connections with each other. It's amazing how the book kept everything straight while it's all woven together. The most refreshing thing is how everyone is portrayed as human, with good and bad sides. The adults truly act like adults! They make mistakes. They have tempers and say rash things and jump to conclusions, but they look back and react like real people rather than huffy romance cliches. Delightful for a story that could have easily relied on tropes and misunderstandings. It was wonderful and heartwarming to read how it all played out.

    In Howard, Missouri Dylan Ross meets Tara Montgomery at his mom's daycare center where she works. She recognizes him as a love 'em and leave 'em hunk; having met one before; Jay dumped her when she got pregnant four years ago. Now she raises her Jimmy as a single mom, but her child's paternal grandparents are suing for custody insisting she is unfit though they only know her from her bad girl Jay days.

    Violet Durant calls Dylan asking if he will attend her daughter's funeral and what he plans to do about four year old Lily who he did not know existed until now. The computer guru and the day care provider share a common problem to which he offers a solution. She accepts his marriage of convenience proposal, as long as he understands her child comes first in her eyes.

    Although the theme is not new, the characters turn this into a warm family drama filled with love as each has to overcome a misconception about the other. Neither adult can help but fall in love with the other's child and subsequently each other. Contemporary fans will enjoy the Marriage Solution as neither parents anticipated the love.

    I recommend this helpful book for anyone wanting to look deeper into their marriage. It opened my eyes and actually made me realize just what a wonderful marriage I have. Having someone else bring up solutions is important. It showered both my husband and I with acceptance of each others behaviors. And why we react so differently in our situation. It is relative to raising a son who is handicapped from infancy into an adult and being flexible enough to remain a loving couple while dealing with ever-changing challenges of his world.

    Love reading books with kids and a family coming together!

    At first glance, the solution seems obvious. Tara Montgomery needs stability to fight off a custody claim from her son's seed donor family and Dylan Ross needs help with the daughter he never knew existed. Their attraction for each other is just a side benefit, at least in playboy Dylan's eyes and an annoyance for Tara.

    Watching Tara and Dylan grow while playing house gives the reader a fun look into the challenges of pretend intimacy. I love the way Ms. Kelly uses the theme of family in the book to compare and contrast a real marriage with the practical arrangement her main characters have adopted. Challenges to the paper family cause both Dylan and Tara to realize they might have chosen the right solution all along.

    Readers will love the sense of family Ms. Kelly brings to a small Missouri town and two people who at first glance seem to be polar opposites. Many couples stay together for the sake of the children. This couple finds their path through their children. I loved the Marriage Solution!

    Five Stars!!

    This book is about couple (Tara & Dylan) that join forces out of the need of two single parents. Tara was deserted by her playboy boyfriend upon hearing of her pregnancy and Dylan finds himself a parent of a four year old daughter Lily he never knew existed until her mother died.

    The two have the total support of Dylan's family, but Tara's wealthy parents had preferred an abortion over a grandchild. Tara determined to be the best mother she can be and Dylan determined to be the best father he can be, become devoted parents.

    Dylan and Tara face more than normal challenges, Tara's from the playboy and his parents wanting to take her child Jimmy, to Lily being told Dylan was a boogey man by her mother before her death and Lily being truly afraid of father.

    It's a bird's eye view of watching a relationship develop from need to respect, to admiration to love by all the characters portrayed. I really enjoyed reading The Marriage Solution; Megan Kelly has a talent for writing a fascinating read from start to finish.
