Winding up stranded in a wedding dress on the back forty of some grumps property wasnt exactly on my bucket list.
The memory of why I jumped out of my ex-fiancés car in a wedding dress is a bit hazy.
Or maybe I was pushed.
Disoriented, I stumble through the trees until exhaustion forces me to rest. Time passes in a feverish blur, but eventually, Im discovered by a friendly dog and her unfriendly owner, Jude Powell.
The gorgeous grump isnt too pleased with my disheveled appearance. That doesnt stop him from ripping my ruined dress to create a makeshift sling for my arm and taking me to the emergency room.
To thank him for his reluctant hospitality, I take off without a backward glance after borrowing his van and his watch.
He tracks me to the local pawn shop with a propositionwork at his dog sanctuary, and hell provide me with room and board. Hes used to taking in strays, after all.
Considering that I cant remember my recent past, and what I can recall isnt worth returning to, its an offer I cant refuse.
Now we bicker over breakfast, which turns into long, heated looks. Soon enough, were stealing soft touches, and I realize Jude is revealing a side of himself that he rarely shows.
He becomes a protective force in my life, especially once my ex tracks me down.
But Judes keeping a secret of his own. One he believes makes him unworthy of my affection.
And while hes preoccupied trying to keep me safe, its up to me to prove hes wanted after all.
