Publisher Description
Running in five-inch stilettos is an art form. Leaving your fiancé at the altar on live television is a disaster.
Lexie Kowalsky thought she was ready to get married in front of millions of people, but at the last minute she fled the set of television’s hottest reality show, Gettin’ Hitched. Wearing a poofy white dress and a pair of five-inch sparkly shoes, Lexie hopped a float plane for Sandspit, Canada. She figured no one would find her there. But she was wrong.
Sharing her flight was the Seattle Chinooks biggest star, Sean Knox. Lexie wasn’t just a reality-show runaway, she was his pain in the butt coach’s daughter. She was chaos and temptation and definitely off limits, but getting her luscious body out of that wedding gown, he couldn’t resist getting her in his bed for one amazing night.
Then a photo of Sean and Lexi breaks the internet—and suddenly they’re both swept up in a crazy plan to spin the whole story. But you can’t run from love. . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Gibson's seventh Seattle Chinooks hockey romance delightfully recycles her premise from Simply Irresistible (1998). NHL star Sean Knox gets tangled up with a runaway bride who happens to be the daughter of his coach, John Kowalsky. Lexie Kowalsky has no choice but to bolt from her live-TV wedding extravaganza. She initially joined the Gettin' Hitched reality show to promote her dog clothing boutique, but her competitive spirit (and beauty) propelled her to the altar without really getting to know her groom. It's an easy decision to jump on the same small plane Sean is taking to visit his mother in tiny Sandspit, Canada. Lexie doesn't recognize Sean, who wonders whether he should spill the beans, but he doesn't intend to get involved with Lexie, as he's walking on eggshells getting to know his new coach. Intentions fall by the wayside once he gets Lexie out of her gown and stops resisting the warm, intelligent woman with a strange dog and a knack for handling his wacky mother. Gibson fans will adore cameos by previous protagonists in this cheerful, quick-paced tale.
Customer Reviews
Loved it!
I love Rachel Gibson, I wish I could find more writers like her. This book was great! I loved seeing some of my favorite characters return. Just a sweet fun love story!
It was ok
I’ve read all the chinook books and this is the only one I felt left us hanging. It kinda felt the author just didn’t know where the story should go and ended the book. Cute story otherwise, it was good to look back at the original characters. Is Autumn and Sam’s son next?
worst novel
shockingly awful- I have liked all her other books to varying degrees but this one was disappointing
