Always Mine

One impulsive Vegas wedding. Five weeks of radio silence. Now her injured husband needs her home.

ALWAYS MINE (originally published as Runaway Bride Returns)

Spontaneously marrying firefighter Owen Marston, a man she'd known for only three days, was definitely one of the most questionable things Isabella Cavaletti had ever done. But she can’t seem to stay away when Owen winds up injured and in need of a little TLC, something Izzy is more than happy to provide for her scorching hot new husband…

Volunteering to nurse a stranger in his three-story Paxton condo hardly ranked as a sensible move for a wandering library consultant. Owen is laid up with a bright blue cast and heavy family expectations, but he is still the charming man who swept her into an Elvis chapel.

Her plan was delightfully simple: pack her single suitcase and vanish before anyone filed for an annulment. Between shared grilled cheese lunches and late-night confessions, Owen has no intention of letting his runaway bride walk away again.

A three-day Vegas fling was never meant to last. Moving into close quarters changes every calculation.
