Not Quite a Bride

A hilarious and heartwarming debut novel of big dreams, big days, and even bigger lies. . .

Molly Harrigan has always dreamed of the perfect wedding, she just never thought she’d be in scores of them as the bridesmaid. Now on her thirtieth birthday-after her younger, married sister announces that she’s pregnant-Molly’s old dream takes on an all-new urgency.

It doesn’t help matters that her best friend Brad drops the bomb that he’s engaged to his spoiled brat of a girlfriend. Devastated, Molly does what almost no one in the same situation would do. With a giant wedding fund burning a hole in her pocket (courtesy of her late, beloved grandmother), Molly hires a fianc�.

Now armed with the perfect boyfriend, Molly stages a whirlwind courtship, engagement, and grand-ballroom-style wedding. Lying to her friends and family is a small price to pay for cake-tastings, gift registries, and dress fittings. But lying to herself could cost Molly her one chance at true love-with a man whose feet are turning as cold as her own. . .
