Synopsis

The Cinderella Bride

As the poor relation in the rich and powerful Carnarvon family, Ashley Carnarvon is used to hand-me-downs.

But getting handed down a wedding dress? Bad enough that the bride who was supposed to wear it, ditched her groom and the gown, but even worse, the dress doesn't suit her.

At twenty-five, Ashley's not sure what she wants to do with her life. She's still living on the Carnarvon compound in Malibu, sharing a cottage on the property with her mother. She goes to school part time, works part time and parties more than she should. Mostly, she parties with Eric Van Hoffendam, who's the slacker in his rich, powerful family. A lot of their friends are starting to get married and when Eric asks her to marry him, she likes the idea. Eric doesn't look down on her or demand anything of her. Life with him would be easy, and Ashley likes things to be easy. Until her childhood crush shows up...

Bennett Saegar has a bad habit of making his life harder than it needs to be. Trying to make it as a Hollywood screenwriter is hard enough, but when a movie star stages a very public suicide attempt over unrequited love for him, the media frenzy is so bad he needs a place to hide out. Luckily, the pool house is free on the property of his family friends, the Carnarvons. He'll be out of sight and able to concentrate on his next screenplay. Best of all, he'll be far away from women.

When he moves into the pool house, the first person he sees is Ashley Carnarvon. Ashley who had a world class crush on him ten years earlier. Now, she's all grown up and something about her pulls at him. Good thing she's engaged, or she could be a serious distraction. Then, Ben meets her fiancé and realizes this guy is all wrong for Ashley. She's got so much more potential than she realizes. He wishes he knew how to show her how special she is without anyone getting the wrong idea about his intentions. Especially him.
