Marriage by Necessity Lily Warren's new hat shop is her ticket to self-reliance...until a fire threatens to destroy her dreams. And when Edward Stone--her landlord and the town blacksmith--bursts into her private rooms to rescue her, Lily's reputation is tarnished. So Edward proposes a solution that could save her good name--even as it puts her independence at risk. With an orphaned niece who needs a mother, Edward believes a marriage of convenience is the answer to his and Lily's problems. But he didn't plan on developing feelings for his new wife. And now he can't quell his urge to protect impulsive, kindhearted Lily. Perhaps it's time for the wary blacksmith to try forging something truly precious--a real family...

We don't see much of the Crofts (who own the general store) but in a sense they reminded me a bit of the Olesons in the TV series "Little House on the Prairie" with a wife who likes to gossip/spread "information" and a husband who is kinder and more helpful.
I find it annoying that a man going in to a burning building to save a woman inside is what causes Lily's reputation to be threatened. (Because according to the town busybody, Lily must have been entertaining him in her room in order for him to have noticed the fire.)
I do like that Edward is willing to care for his niece though I don't think the parents should have left her behind when they moved in the first place. (Of course, I didn't live in that time and travel was more difficult and possibly more dangerous then than it is now, so perhaps it was the right thing to do for that time.) I'm glad he recognizes her need for a woman's touch in her life. It was harder for me to accept that he didn't want to tell her about her parents and that they might not come back. ( )
