Greta Brewster McBain is in a bind. Two, if she’s really
counting. First there’s the can-barely-breathe bridesmaid’s
dress from hell. Second, the stranger who just carried her
“perfect” brother’s fiancée out the church door has made it
impossible to tell her own mother about her own divorce.
Rather than confirm her reputation as the family screw-up,
Greta takes a drive to clear her head.
Trapped in a hole and unable to reach his cell phone, Hank
Mitchell is resigned to becoming a permanent part of his own
archeological dig when help arrives—in the form of a woman
who looks like a Gone With The Wind refugee. Behind the
ruffles and lace, though, is something he appreciates: a
woman who isn’t afraid of a little dirt.
Their instant connection draws Greta into the eccentric
world of the Hotel Grand, where she impulsively trades her
hoopskirts for an apron. Soon things are getting hot—not
only in the hotel kitchen, but in Hank’s arms...
Warning: Contains hot moonlit sex, a melancholy turtle, two
wisecracking seniors, and the world’s ugliest bridesmaid dress.
