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.
