Wedding Surprise — Ann B. Harrison

After her mother went off the rails yet again, Mari was offered sanctuary with her high school boyfriend's family, but a cruel misunderstanding had her fleeing yet again. Ten years later, single mother Mari is back in her small Montana hometown to open her own wedding and event business and refurbish the historic Lake hotel. She's also hoping to make amends with the boy she once loved and left, but too many secrets are holding her back. When contractor Ethan Benson arrives at the Lake Hotel to check out the site he's bid on, he's shocked to learn the girl he'd once loved and imagined marrying has moved back to Cherry Lake. He tells himself too much water's passed under that bridge, but Mari still lights him up. Ethan's heard that you can't go back again, but he's determined to give it his best shot and show Mari what's she's missed all these years away.
