❤ Their botched wedding is only the start of their storybook romance❤
Annette Trevetti felt like a modern-day Cinderella as she walked down the aisle towards her first love and the heir to a small fortune. But her wedding day screeched to a halt when an extremely pregnant woman crashed the ceremony claiming Annette’s Prince Charming was the father.
Devastated, Annette shakes off the dust of Tobias, Wisconsin, and starts a climb to build her own successful business. But when her brother gets injured on the job, she immediately returns to help him . . . even though it risks exposing the feelings she still harbors for the man who broke her heart.
Single dad Steve Corbett's biggest regret is tied up with his greatest joy – his daughter. Now Annette’s homecoming seven years after she left him at the altar, makes him realize his love for her hasn't changed one bit. And if his matchmaking daughter, their one-of-a-kind elderly relative, and a circle of friends have it their way, they'd pick the romance up where it left off. It’s not that easy.
Working alongside Annette to help with her brother's construction project, Steve senses the flicker of their old flame. But he knows it will take a lot of sweat and tears to rebuild the crumbling trust for a second chance at happily ever after.
With years and heartache between them, can Annette and Steve learn to have faith in each other and rebuild a new future together in this first book in the Marry Me series. If you like fiery chemistry, precocious children, quirky matchmakers, and emotional journeys of the heart, you'll love USA Today bestseller Patricia McLinn's small-town romance about second chances.
