Synopsis
Jacey met the man of her dreams a year ago--and hasn't seen him since. Finally relocating him as the pastor at her best friend's wedding was the very last thing she expected.
A year ago, Jacey was trapped on a rooftop during a flood with perfect strangers, including a family and a man named Colin. After two days there together, she had no doubt that Colin was the man of her dreams. When they were finally rescued he tucked his phone number into her pocket. But an accident with the rescue boat left her hospitalized with amnesia and PTSD . . . and his number nowhere to be found.
Now, Jacey has still only recovered bits and pieces of her memory from that time. She clearly remembers Colin--but not his last name or any other details that would help her locate him. She's trying to immerse herself in the joy of her best friend's wedding . . . when she looks up at the end of the aisle only to discover Colin there in the minister's role. Shock is an understatement.
On one hand, she's elated to see him again. And then reality sets in. She never intended to get married or have kids. And being a minister's wife was definitely never on her list. Was Colin not the man she thought he was? Or has the amnesia changed her more than she realized?
With the typical wit and honesty Celeste Fletcher McHale is becoming known for, it's time for Jacey to take a fresh look at her life. Could this string of unexpected events have been setting her up for something far better than what she had planned for herself?
