Fans of Elsie Silver’s Powerless and Lucy Score’s Protecting What’s Mine will swoon for Isobel Reed’s firefighter heroes and the feisty women who go toe-to-toe with them. Hitched is a second chance romance where two high school sweethearts are thrown back into each other’s lives after a decade apart. Old flames burn the hottest, but can they survive the heat? It was safe to say Bethany Mayer was questioning her life choices as she stuffed four layers of her tulle wedding dress into her ex-boyfriend’s pickup truck. She thought she had it all figured out. Move home to Woodvalley Pines. Marry her long-term boyfriend. Open her own medical practice. But one day, one decision, changed her life forever. Now, instead of being the talk of the town for her superior skills as a doctor, she’s the subject of the small town’s unhinged rumor mill. Being his ex’s getaway driver as she ditches her own wedding wasn’t exactly how firefighter, Benny, thought his day was going to go. He’d actually been counting on finally getting some closure after a decade apart. This had to be the complete opposite of that, right? Now his first and only love was back in town and suddenly single. Never mind the deranged rumors flying around town about her runaway bride stunt, he was more scared of the truth. And the kind of trouble he was about to get into now he knows she’s sticking around. It’s not only their shared past that’s unravelling as Benny and Bethany struggle to fight the spark that still burns bright. The flames may never die—but can love rise from the wreckage they left behind? EXCERPT: Ten years had been kind to Benjamin Tucker. His boyish features had matured. His toned body had turned muscular. His wild chestnut hair, tamed. Even the bump in his nose he’d received after a classmate slammed open the locker door next to him, looked rugged paired with day-old stubble. Men suck. “I’m sorry I’m not living up to your getaway driver standards, B!” he snorted. “Maybe you want to explain to me what the fuck is going on?” She stayed quiet. That was definitely not something she wanted to do. At least they were moving. And there were no signs of her being followed. “Or, whereabouts I’m taking you?” he pressed. She didn’t have an answer for that, either. Running out on her wedding wasn’t exactly on her list of things to do today. Right now, she was supposed to be Mrs. Douglas Wright. But she couldn’t do it. Staring at her reflection in that bathroom mirror, it had hit her like a ton of bricks. Her nausea wasn’t nerves. The tightness in her chest on the drive over wasn’t anticipation. And the churn in her stomach certainly wasn’t butterflies. The adrenaline was waning though, which meant she had to start feeling. It’s why she let her eyes flutter shut at the first sign of stinging. “B?” Benny called out. Hello? I’m trying not to cry here! Hearing her first love’s voice wasn’t helping. It was no wonder the tears won. “Hey?” She noticed Benny’s voice gentled. “NeNe, baby, you okay?” The use of his nickname for her, combined with a ‘baby,’ was enough to jolt her back to reality and quite possibly push her over the edge. “No, I’m not okay. I just ran out on my wedding. My freaking wedding!” Her voice might have risen. “I have nowhere to go ‘cause my parents will be pissed as hell I’ve run out on a wedding they paid for. I can’t go back to my brand-new apartment ‘cause the man I just left standing at the altar lives there. And if that’s not enough of a shit sandwich, I’m currently sitting in a big-ass white wedding dress in a truck I not only lost my virginity in, but with the man who fucking took it—with no money, no clothes and no idea what the hell I’m going to do. So, no. I’m not o-fucking-kay.” She threw her head back, loudly sighing as it met metal. She forgot there was no headrest. You don’t deserve a headrest. No. She didn’t. She needed to prepare for discomfort before her trip to hell. You might have already arrived. Don't Miss any of the Romance!! About the Author- Isobel was born and raised in London. While she’s a city girl at heart, she loves daydreaming about running away to a charming small town—though she’s not entirely sure her husband and son would share her enthusiasm for the move. When she’s not writing small-town romantic comedies or growing unhealthily attached to the characters in her books, you can find her reading, chasing after her very active toddler, or attempting to channel her inner domestic goddess in the kitchen (with varying degrees of success). Known for her witty dialogue and swoon-worthy small-town heroes, Isobel signed with Inkspell Publishing in 2021. The following year, she released Love Tools, the first book in her four-book Bluestone Series. In early 2024, she launched Toasted, the debut novel of her seven-book Love Burns Series, which will roll out over the next year. https://www.tiktok.com/@isobelreedbooks https://www.facebook.com/isobelreedbooks https://www.instagram.com/isobelreedbooks/ https://www.isobelreed.net/ https://www.amazon.com/author/isobelreed https://www.goodreads.com/Isobel_Reed https://www.bookbub.com/authors/isobel-reed
