Cover of Worth The Risk by Lyn O'Farrell
Blurb:
Children's librarian Amanda Lloyd values privacy above all else. Three years ago her wedding ended in disaster when her groom was arrested at the altar and the story of the 'Embezzler's Bride' appeared in the supermarket tabloids. The experience has left her determined to avoid being caught in the public eye again. Until she meets a sexy single dad with a scandalous past.
Ex-racer Mitch Delaney is a public figure whose life has been plastered across the tabloids more than once. But he believes that anything worth doing is worth a risk. After the death of his ex-wife, he moved to Southern California to take care of his son Josh. He doesn't need the complication of a woman in his life, especially since Josh's grandparents have filed suit for custody. But Josh is on the hunt for a new mother and he has his heart set on Miss Amanda, and Mitch can't fault his son's taste.
Against her better judgment, Amanda finds herself falling for both of the Delaney men. When she agrees to accompany Mitch to a high-profile movie premiere, they draw the attention of the tabloids. Overnight Amanda’s private affair becomes very public indeed, threatening her job and Mitch’s custody suit. She’s waited twenty-eight years for the right man. But will happiness come at too high a price?

Oh man. This book sounds great. Can't believe the groom was arrested at the alter!!!
Anna Rose,
Believe it or not, we took that straight out of a local news report where a groom was arrested right at the altar. Don’t remember what he did, though. It was quite a while ago.
ROFL. On the news the other night from Albuquerque, the cops caught up with a guy at a gas station and I guess there was a warrent for him on a parole violation. He told them he was on his way to his wedding. Well, they actually got the bride and the ceremony was performed at pump #6 at the Conoco or whatever it was with the groom in cuffs and then they took him away. That is an honest-to-golly true story. stranger than fiction for sure! But it might make itw way into fiction one of these days LOL.
Gee, those cops were much more romantic than the ones we read about. No wedding that day. Truth really can be stranger than fiction sometimes.
