Winding up stranded in a wedding dress on the back forty of some grump’s property wasn’t exactly on my bucket list.
The memory of why I jumped out of my ex-fiancé’s car in a wedding dress is a bit hazy.
Or maybe I was pushed.
Disoriented, I stumble through the trees until exhaustion forces me to rest. Time passes in a feverish blur, but eventually, I’m discovered by a friendly dog and her unfriendly owner, Jude Powell.
The gorgeous grump isn’t too pleased with my disheveled appearance. That doesn’t stop him from ripping my ruined dress to create a makeshift sling for my arm and taking me to the emergency room.
To thank him for his reluctant hospitality, I take off without a backward glance… after borrowing his van and his watch.
He tracks me to the local pawn shop with a proposition—work at his dog sanctuary, and he’ll provide me with room and board. He’s used to taking in strays, after all.
