1. DONβT KISS THE BRIDE by Carian Cole
SYNOPSIS
I guess you could say I was a damsel in distress, and he was my knight in shining armor. But more accurately, I was a girl with a lot of bad luck, and he was a guy with a lot of muscles and tattoos.
Jude βLuckyβ Lucketti wasnβt just a sexy, brooding construction worker. He was my own personal hero who seemed to be in all the right places at the right times. Like when my car broke down and I needed a ride home, and when I face-planted on the sidewalk right in front of him and had to be taken to the emergency room. Those werenβt exactly my best moments, but they were his.
We became friends, and it didnβt matter that he was sixteen years older than me. We had a lot in commonβlike our love of old rock music and vintage fast cars, and our aversion to relationships. When he approached me with a crazy idea to help me out, I couldnβt say no. The arrangement was supposed to be temporary. A marriage on paper and nothing more.
It shouldβve been easy, but it wasnβt. Because here I am, eighteen years old and married to a man I was never supposed to fall in love with. We had just one ruleβdonβt kiss the bride. But we broke that rule, and it sealed our fate forever.
