Four stories celebrate the romance, joy, excitement, and occasional mishaps that occur in the lives of women who are planning their wedding. I Do, I Do . . . Again by Barbara Bretton: Sunny Talbot and Robert Holland were high school sweethearts whose teenage marriage quickly fell apart in the face of real life. When a chance meeting brings them together again years later, they quickly discover that the passion they once shared burns hotter than ever. Robert and Sunny are sure they've finally found their happily-ever-after but will their second chance at love survive planning the wedding? Bride On The Run by Rita Clay Estrada: Wedding gown in hand, winning lottery ticket in her shoe, Kathi Baylor cut and ran. She commandeered Hannibal Saunders to drive her to collect her prize. Playing hooky in his friend's pickup truck, the conservative lawyer took this hellion on the ride of her life Bride in Blue by Sandra James (aka: Samantha James): At her first wedding, Kate Harrison was left at the altar. Now she feared she'd never make it that far for her second. Just weeks away from the big day, Kate met Grant Richards at a remote river inn. Marriage was still on her mind--but with a different groom. The First Man You Meet by Debbie Macomber: Shelly Hansen was horrified when Great-Aunt Milly's infamous wedding dress arrived on Friday the thirteenth. Family legend said she'd marry the next man she met. So when she ran into handsome Mark Brady, Shelly told herself--and him--that she wasn't interested. But then she started seeing him everywhere.... Just coincidence
