The Last Southern BelleHe 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? |
