Bride In Waiting (On The Way To A Wedding...)
THE SUBSTITUTE BRIDE Dr. Lucas Daniels viewed his bride-to-be's temporary disappearance with exasperation, fondness and resignation. After all, she felt the same way about him! Then a beautiful stranger strolled into town, looking exactly like his fiancee. In order to avoid upsetting their families, Lucas asked Sara Martin to stand in as the missing bride. But now he was wondering which bride to marry.... Sara had been searching for a family, and now her wishes had come true. Not only did she have wonderful parents, but the look of love in her pretend groom's eyes warmed her heart. But when the clock struck twelve, would it end her fairy-tale dream or give her a true happily ever after? ON THE WAY TO A WEDDING... Long-lost twins discover their perfect grooms!
Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Romance, Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

Preview the edition to decide how it fits your available reading time.
Begin with its place in Romance, then notice where the book resists that label.
Read for connection, not completion.
Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.
Three questions to carry with you
- What must each character learn before the relationship can become believable?
- How do work, family, friendship, or identity shape the central relationship?
- Does the emotional resolution feel earned by the choices that came before it?
