Introduction

Kissing the wrong guy days before her wedding leads Allison to become a runaway bride. But can it also lead to happily ever after?

Allison Denman is supposed to get married in five days, but everything is all wrong: the huge wedding, the frothy dress, and the groom.

Still, kissing the groom's brother in an unguarded moment is decidedly not the right thing to do. How could she have made such a mistake? It seems Allison's life is nothing but mistakes at this point. And pulling a ?Runaway Bride,? complete with "borrowing" her best friend's car, doesn?t seem to solve her problems.

Can Allison find her way out of this mess? She prefers to be the one in control, and giving it up is not going to be easy. But to find her way again, she will have to believe that God has a plan for her and find the strength to let Him lead.

Wish You Were Here is fun and full of humor'sure to be a pleasure to inspirational romance readers.

Discussion Questions

1. You wove two controversial topics into Wish You Were Here: cutting and pornography. You also mentioned Locks of Love, which is an organization that makes wigs for people dealing with hair loss. Why did you weave those issues into your novel?
2. Allison has serious doubts about marrying her fiance, Seth. Did personal experience with those kinds of second thoughts help you write the book?
3. So, llamas ... How on earth did llamas end up in an inspirational contemporary romance novel?
