Secrets of a Runaway Bride by Valerie Bowman
Summary: Miss
Annie Andrews is finally free to marry the man she loves. With her
overprotective sister out of the country on her honeymoon, nothing can prevent
her flight to Gretna Green—nothing, that is, but an abduction by the wrong
gentleman.
When Jordan Holloway, the Earl of
Ashbourne, promised to look after his best friend's sister-in-law, he didn’t
realize she would prove so difficult. But when he spirits her away to his
country house to prevent her elopement, he discovers that the tempting beauty
knows how to put up a fight. To make matters worse, he’s stuck playing the role
of honorable protector...when what he really wants is to run away with her
himself.
Angie's Comments: A cute Regency romance. The heroine is quirky, but
immature at times. I couldn’t quite believe how many times she ran off with the
wrong guy. However, she is adorable and full of spirit. And poor Jordan, who
has trouble keeping up with her! This isn’t a strict historical romance,
because the characters are more modern than historical, and Annie’s actions would
have ruined her reputation many times over before this book even began. But
taken with a grain of salt, it is a quick, cute read.
This is for readers who like quirky
romances with spirited heroines and some spice.
