Maddie has a problem. She needs a husband…and she needs one
fast.
Maddie needs to find, a man who will actually agree to sign
a prenuptial, marry her and then accept a hefty “pay off” to give her a divorce
and exit her life. If she can’t find someone she can trust to pull off this
marriage of convenience by April first her step mother will retain the control
of her massive inheritance for another ten years.
There is only one man Mattie can think of that she could
trust. Jake. He was her first love and the one special friend from her
childhood she felt she could go to with her scheme. Jake’s mother worked for
Maddie’s family when she and Jake were children. The two spent their childhood
together and became fast friends, but Mattie had wanted more. Her impulsive
nature put them in an embarrassing situation in which they were caught by
Mattie’s stepmother. Jake’s mother lost her job and was kicked out. Jake’s well
laid plans for a scholarship and his future crumbled. While Mattie’s life spun
out of control, Jake struggled to achieve his dreams and over the years of
their separation, unknown by Mattie, had done quite well for himself.
Their meeting is uncomfortable, but Jake does agree to her
scheme. On April 1st they are
wed and the adventure begins.
This is a wonderful love story. April Fool Bride is well
plotted and beautifully told. As the story came to an end I found myself
wanting to read more.
I read a lot of books, but I don’t read them all to the end,
and I only write a review on the ones I love. I thoroughly enjoyed April
Fool Bride. 5 Stars!!
