Backwards Honeymoon

Reader's Choice award-winner

 

She takes a detour on her walk up the aisle

 

Minutes before her wedding begins, Kathryn Campbell discovers her fiancé is a sleazy fortune-hunter, and she makes a dramatic escape… not only from the ex but from her father, who thinks Kathryn is suffering last-minute jitters and should go on with the ceremony.

 

He was only changing the oil in his car

 

When a desperate beauty who's still wearing orange blossoms trips over him and begs for help, gardener's son Jonah Clarke can't say no. But he soon finds this runaway bride doesn't simply want to escape her elaborate wedding and her father's well-protected estate.

 

His plans for the afternoon didn't include marriage

 

If she's doomed to marry a fortune-hunter, Kathryn declares, it might as well be one she's chosen – so she proposes to Jonah.

 

He's helped her before – but this time the stakes are higher

 

With her father in pursuit, the runaways are off on a cross-country trek with a few dollars in cash, a whole lot of baggage – just not the kind that holds clothes – and all the excitement and intimacy of a quirky honeymoon…

 

And they're not even married… yet.
