ALL DRESSED UP IN LOVE
Tara walks into Elena’s Bridal and finds her dream job—and a handsome man to match.
A third-year law student, Tara Simonetti just needs a job to pay the bills and put food on the table. After her father’s untimely death, she’s determined to give her small hometown what he didn’t have: a good, honest lawyer, but law school isn’t cheap. When she answers a want ad that leads her to Elena’s Bridal one blustery morning, she feels like she’s died and gone to heaven. All of the organza, gowns, and pearls she could ever imagine—her dream job, indeed.
My Review:
Herne knows how to pack an emotional wallop in novella length stories. Short and definitely sweet, but filled with conflict and angst and so much hope your heart will soar.
I just love Tara. A unique heroine in that she's completely comfortable in her own skin. She's outspoken and compassionate, fun-loving and so upbeat you can't help but fall in love with her from the get go. In comparison, Greg is intent on climbing the corporate ladder and is just discovering that his ambition has left a void in his life. Tara is good for him and if he let her she could tempt him away from some long-term goals. But he isn't going to let her. At least, he thinks he isn't. Watching Greg come alive in love and faith makes an inspirational read that hovers on magical.
Please note that All Dressed Up In Love is available in ebook format only. It is part of Zondervan's second Year of Weddings novella collection. A new novella will be released every month of 2015 and then published in paperback collections in 2016.

Ooh, all that lace and frilly things. That sounds wonderful, but I think brides-to-be could be a little difficult to handle.
