Is there anything more beautiful than a bride? Anything more emotional than a wedding? Here to capture that shimmering excitement, to bring to life the matrimonial mantra of 'Something old, something new,' are four spellbinding novellas by four historical-romance stars. In Something Old, Elaine Barbieri crafts a suspenseful tale of an old grudge-and dangerously arrange an arrogant bachelor father, a mysterious baby nurse, and a motherless newborn into the portrait of a proper South Carolina clan? In Evelyn Rogers Something Borrowed, a pretty widow and a gambler on the lam borrow identities other Something Blue, Bobbi Smith deftly engages a debonair cavalry officer and a feisty saloon girl in a moving tale of sexy steel and heart-melting magnolias. So start reading...and get ready to start humming "Here Comes the Bride"!
