"Every Bride Needs A Groom"

Janice Thomspon

Somewhere in a sea of tulle and taffeta, satin and crepe, Katie Fisher needs to find a key ingredient of the perfect wedding--the groom.
Small-town girl Katie Fisher is busy planning her fairy-tale wedding. Sure, her boyfriend hasn't managed to pop the question just yet, but that doesn't mean she shouldn't enter a contest in Texas Bride magazine to win the dress of her dreams, right? Anyway, she's sure he'll be getting down on one knee any time now. And a one-of-a-kind designer dress doesn't just fall out of the sky right when you need it.

But when Katie's boyfriend takes a job in another town and breaks up with her--on the very same day she wins her dream dress--her world is turned upside down. Dare she go to Dallas to claim her prize? And will the hunky pro basketball player who runs the beyond-swanky bridal shop--yeah, you read that right--discover her humiliating secret if she does?

**********************************

I have always enjoyed reading Janice Thompson's books and looking forward to this one.  I must say, it wasn't as great as I thought it would be.  The story line was funny but a but far-fetched.  I didn't understand why the dress was such a big secret.

Janice Thompson always gives creative chapter titles, that's something that I have always enjoyed about her books.  The chapter titles in this book were all Loretta Lynn song titles.  That was neat.  

There were innuendos in this book that were not necessary and unappreciated.  It's never funny to make light of sin.  

As always, this was a light-hearted read, with likeable characters.
