Ever wondered what happens when cold feet lead you right back to the one who got away? In How to Romance a Runaway Bride, USA Today bestselling author Teri Wilson spins a tale that's equal parts hilarious mishap and scorching attraction. Allegra Clark is moments from saying 'I do' when panic hits—she's out the door in her poofy wedding dress, crashing the adjacent party. And whose bash is it? None other than hotelier Zander Wilde, celebrating his 30th birthday. Remember that childhood pact? 'If we're not married by thirty, we'll marry each other.' Now, with days to her own milestone birthday, fate's thrown them together again.
Zander can't believe his eyes: the woman who's haunted his dreams, more stunning than ever, veil and all. What starts as shock turns into flirtation laced with unresolved tension. Allegra's commitment phobia clashes with Zander's polished confidence, but underneath, there's real vulnerability. Wilson's prose paints their banter with sharp wit—think stolen glances across crowded rooms, a dance floor encounter that raises the temperature, and quiet moments revealing deeper scars from past heartbreaks.
It's not just escapism; it's a reminder that sometimes the best love stories start with a wardrobe malfunction and a whole lot of what-ifs. Perfect for fans of trope-y delights like fake dating or enemies-to-lovers lite, but with emotional depth that lingers.
