Baby Blues and Wedding Bells (Marry Me contemporary romance series Book 4‪)‬

❤A stranger in his own town, to his own daughter ❤

When the black sheep of Tobias, Wisconsin, returns to his small-town home, the repercussions reach far and deep.


Handsome and charming Zach Corbett left Tobias eight years ago to make his own way... and never looked back.

Not at the pregnant ex-girlfriend he left behind. Or at what his departure might mean for his brother Steve, whose wedding was put on hold to raise a baby.


With his return, tensions are high, and there’s only one person who might be able to redeem the Corbetts’ troubled family reunion, a woman who has truly seen Zach since they were kids. Fran Dalton has always seen beyond the bravado to the pain in those beautiful baby blues of Zach’s. Now, she can see he’s changed since he was away. And, unlike when they were kids, now she’s grabbed his attention.


If only she can draw Zach into a loving relationship, and prove how much he’s changed, his fractured family might just find it in their hearts to forgive. And heal.


Can Zach and Fran escape the past's hold to make a future?


If you love to laugh and cry, Baby Blues and Wedding Bells, Book 4 of USA Today bestselling author Patricia McLinn's Marry Me series, will captivate you with a heartfelt small-town romance about grabbing second chances.
