She Woke Up Married
Suzanne Macpherson

Romance Contemporary

Paris James started running the day she graduated from high school and hasn't stopped since, even though she's a top- ranked fashion model. On assignment in Las Vegas, she wakes up one morning to find herself married and in bed with Elvis. Well, an Elvis impersonator -- the young version, thank heavens. But that's the only thing she's thankful for. Even when she finds out he's an old friend from high school, she wants out of the marriage.

Turner Pruitt knows all about Paris' past -- her heartbreaking childhood, her psychotic mother. But he's loved her all these years and never dreamed she'd suddenly show up and marry him. He's determined to stay married. And he's willing to wait for her to come to her senses and realize they could be happy together. When Paris learns she pregnant -- with twins -- Turner won't let her fear of becoming psychotic like her mother ruin their chance to have it all.

SHE WOKE UP MARRIED isn't your usual romance. Paris and Turner's roles are reversed. He's deeply in love and she won't let herself be. He has the patience of Job and she has the attention span of the MTV generation. But even though this isn't your usual story, it will grab you from the get-go. And the secondary characters are brilliant. Fun, witty, quirky and warmhearted, they make a good story an adventure. A very good read.

SUMMARY

Paris James has come to Las Vegas to take the sting off turning the dreaded "Three-O." But one glass of bubbly leads to another -- and when the redhead wakes up the next morning, she finds to her astonishment she's in bed with ... Elvis! The good news is it's the young, sexy Elvis. The bad news is there's a diamond ring on her finger. Sometime during the evening she actually married The King of Rock 'n' Roll! Well, what happened in Vegas better stay in Vegas, right?

But not if Turner Pruitt has anything to say about it. Because years before he put on his first pair of blue suede shoes, Turner knew the real Paris ... She's running away, as usual, but he knows her deepest secrets, and as much as she struggles against love, Paris is going to need him by her side as she faces her demons head-on.

Because this time, Paris James has met her match.
