The perfectly romantic marriage of Jennifer Canby and Tom
Brookhaven started out okay. They got engaged at a
restaurant - the ring was concealed in the champagne glass --
and then they drove home to tell Jen's parents, who chose
that moment to announce they're getting divorced.
The wedding would have gone smoothly, except that the groom
was slightly drunk and at the reception a secret-ex-wife
(who Tom never mentioned to Jen) showed up and confronted
her in the restroom. Jen waits until they're on their
honeymoon in the Caribbean to break the news to Tom -- she
thinks they should get divorced now, before things get any
worse. As Jen begins informing the relatives, finding a
place to live and returning the wedding gifts, Tom
patiently waits for his new bride to act less like a crazy
person and more like the woman with whom he just tied the
knot.
Karen Kendall captures the insecurities and doubts
of a zany newlywed who doesn't want to end up like her
parents. This funny, sexy romance will keep you reading
just to find out what Jen will do next. I laughed out loud
at the witty quotes on marriage, weddings and newlyweds.
Don't let the title fool you -- this bride may be FIT TO BE
TIED in a straightjacket. Every step of her journey is
filled with hilarious antics that you will love to read!
Here comes the bride, but she’s fit to be tied! It’s the
Happiest Day of Her Life, but as Jen moves towards the
altar, she feels more like a sacrifice than a bride. What’s
borrowed is her courage, and what’s blue? Oh, that would be
her berry-stained teeth. Jen’s divorcing parents are up to
their usual antics, a self-help book is making her crazy,
and her handsome groom Tom is drunk during the service.
Then a surprise six-foot blonde shows up at the reception—
and worse, she’s Tom’s secret first wife. Jen’s got to be
the only bride ever to ask for a divorce on her honeymoon,
but is it the right choice? And will she lose her mind as
well as her husband while trying to figure it out? Love can
be so complicated!
