Erin Bright is pretty, polished, and popular--the perfect First Daughter. Her father is the mayor of their small town, so photo shoots and fancy inauguration balls are a part of her life (so, unfortunately, is the fact that the press stalks her Facebook page).

When Erin suddenly gets passionate about an environmental cause, she decides to run against her boyfriend...and to challenge everything her dad stands for!

When Billy Rendell suddenly gets everything she wants, it turns out to be the last thing she needs… A long-awaited promotion. Freedom from emotional baggage. A newly—ahem—amorous husband. What's wrong with this picture? Well…everything. For starters, Billy hasn't actually earned any of it. Instead, like some character in a fairy tale, this stuck-in-a-rut publicist had all her wishes granted overnight—which feels great, at first. But soon Billy's brand-new success starts to unravel—who'd have thought becoming a VP would be so Very Painful? Or that a harmless crush on a co-worker would turn not-so-harmless now that he's crushing back? It'll take a surreal, rollicking, high-stakes journey for Billy to realize what she really wants out of life…before it's too late.

The Bride Who Got Lucky by Janna MacGregor Pdf

He would do anything to protect her. Even marry her... The son of a cold-hearted duke, Nicholas St. Mauer isn’t one to involve himself in society...or open his own heart to anyone. But driven by honor, the reclusive Earl of Somerton feels obliged to keep a watchful eye on Lady Emma Cavensham. She possesses a penchant for passions unbecoming a woman that finds Nick in constant peril of losing his well-structured solitude. She even dared kiss Nick once—an utterly unladylike, and delightful, lapse... Emma can’t deny the appeal of the earl’s attention, and occasional affection, but she has no need for a man. There are worse fates than spinsterhood, as Emma knows too well. She still mourns the loss of her dear friend Lena, and is determined to prove Lena’s husband responsible for her death before he lures another innocent woman into a brutal marriage. But as Emma pursues her prey, a compromising moment upends all her plans. Now, with gossip swirling and her reputation in tatters, Nick may be the only man brave enough to join in Emma’s cause. . .and fight for her heart. The Bride Who Got Lucky is a sweeping Regency romance from Janna MacGregor in her Cavensham Heiresses series. Praise for Janna MacGregor’s THE BAD LUCK BRIDE “Full-bodied romance...with intelligence and heart.”—Cathy Maxwell “Sparkling.” —Publishers Weekly “Will leave you swooning.”—Sabrina Jeffries
