He hired himself a runaway bride, then just had to help heal her heart....
Through the window of his Dixieland Grill, Sam Ballard got an eyeful of the blonde in a bridal gown and wondered what wrong turn she'd taken to end up in a broken-down limo in Pinckney, Georgia! Annie Bridges didn't know what she wanted out of life, but it sure wasn't a wedding to a man she barely knew. Could a spitfire with smarts find a happy ending with a small-town hunk who made her laugh and loved her all night long?
Sweet and sassy, Charlotte's Hughes's tale of a lady on the lam and a country lawyer in love sparkles with spicy humor and sizzles with sultry heat. He'd figured her for a spoiled society brat, who'd turn out to be nothing but trouble, but when she proved a whiz at work and a pleasure at play, could he charm her into giving marriage one more chance?
Charlotte Hughes published her first category romance in 1987, a Bantam Books’ Loveswept, titled Too Many Husbands, which immediately shot to #1 on the Waldenbooks Bestseller list. She went on to write almost thirty books before the line closed in 1998.
Although Charlotte is widely known for her laugh-out-loud romantic comedies, she went on to pen three Maggie-Award winning thrillers for Avon Books in the late nineties, before resuming her first love, funny stories about people falling in love. She thrilled readers with her hilarious books, A New Attitude and Hot Shot, the latter of which won the Waldenbooks Greatest Sales Growth Achievement in 2003.
Her books received so many accolades that she was invited to co-author the very popular Full House series with mega-star author Janet Evanovich.
With that series behind her, Charlotte began her own, starring psychologist Kate Holly; What Looks Like Crazy, Nutcase, and High Anxiety, creating a list of somewhat kooky but always loveable and funny ensemble characters.
Charlotte is currently launching Tall, Dark and Bad, starring Summer Pettigrew and bad boy Cooper Garrett. She is writing a series set in the Lowcountry that is a WIP.
