by Valerie Bowman

Miss Annie Andrews is finally free to marry the man she loves. With her overprotective sister out of the country on her honeymoon, nothing can prevent her flight to Gretna Greene-nothing, that is, but an abduction by the wrong gentleman. When Jordan Holloway, the Earl of Ashbourne, promised to look after his best friend's sister-in-law, he didn't realize she would prove so difficult. But when he spirits her away to his country house to prevent her elopement, he discovers that the tempting beauty knows how to put up a fight. To make matters worse, he's stuck playing the role of honorable protector ...when what he really wants is to run away with her himself.

So most of ton is laughing at Annie behind back because she is chasing after Eggleton, were he makes no effort to seek her out. Jordan, decided that he was going to put a stop to Annie's scheme.

I really enjoyed reading Secrets of a Runaway Bride, I was laughing threw most of the book.

The character development was a bit slow but the really made up for it. Character interactions were well written. The way every one interacted made they seem more real and likeable. The plot was awesome, I didn't feel like I missed anything starting to read the series in the middle. Secrets of a Runaway Bride was a great read, very hard to put down.
