Coming your way just in time for the holidays - Return Of The Christmas Bride!

 

 

 

 

 My latest release from Evernight Publishing will debut on December 13th, just in time for Christmas which is perfect because it's a Christmas story.

The title is Return Of The Christmas Bride.  Like many (but not all) of my Evernight titles, its a Romance On The Go, stories designed to be read more quickly than a novel.

I've heard them billed as short reads that are long on romance.

Here's the gorgeous and amazing cover:

And here's the blurb:

 

They fell in love as teenagers and became lovers, promised to wed. Delaney Sackett wanted to experience the wider world to attend college elsewhere but Guthrie Travis begs her not to go, afraid she won't come back. When she does, they plan a Christmas wedding.

She leaves again and doesn't return for a decade and by then, everything they once had is ancient history. When she returns to their hometown, their chance meeting ends in a kiss. They talk about what happened and realize that neither had known the full story. Within weeks, they're together again, planning another Christmas wedding that neither believes anything can stop.

When Delaney is abducted, however, their lives – and the wedding - are on hold and hers may hang in the balance. With days left until the planned Christmas Eve wedding, it will take a holiday miracle for Delaney to return and for the wedding to kick off the rest of their lives together.

 

 Excerpt:

 

“We started planning a wedding—a Christmas wedding.”

            Delaney had the dress. She had carried it with her through multiple moves, tucked inside a garment bag, the full length, white satin off-the-shoulders gown with lace accents she had selected. She’d chosen white and pink poinsettias to decorate the church. Her bouquet would have had red and white roses, some holly leaves with berries, evergreen sprigs, and a few pine cones.

            She nodded, a knot in her throat stopping speech for the moment.

            “Then you got a job offer, writing for some magazine in New York City.” His voice carried resentment and he laid on the sarcasm when he mentioned New York.

            “It was a good offer, they paid me well.”

            “And you went,” Guthrie replied, his voice a low growl with dangerous calm. “You left me again. And any question of a wedding vanished.”
