Sometimes “I do” is just the beginning…
Ellie Winston is adopting her late friend’s baby… But she hits a husband-sized hump: to adopt Jiao, Ellie has to be married! Where can a commitment-phobic female find a husband in a day?

Finn never lets anyone close, even someone as feisty and intriguing as Ellie. But saying “I do,” even when you don’t really, has a way of making even the most stubborn people wake up and realize what they’ve been missing….

Dear Reader,
Writing this book was such fun, because I love Boston (I grew up in the suburbs outside the city) and I love animals. We’ve been the proud owners of a couple of animal shelter dogs, as well as one stray starving cat that found its way to our porch. Our late Golden Retriever Heidi (who was the best darned dog in the world) is the basis for the Heidi in this book (as well as the basis for the lovable but mischievous Mortise and Tenon in How to Lasso a Cowboy). She truly was an amazing dog who has stayed in our hearts long after the day her own heart gave out.
This book introduces the McKenna brothers, starting with the oldest, Finn. I love writing connected books, because it’s so much fun to continue a story from one book to the next. You, dear reader, often have a direct impact on that. I’ll get a letter or email saying you loved this secondary character, or that one, and want to read more about them. To me, it’s like visiting my hometown every time I return to a particular town or family of characters. I guess I’m a bit of a nostalgic person that way—I hold on to old mementos and treasured memories, and love to return home to see friends from way back when.
I love to hear from readers, too, so please write to me through my website (www.shirleyjump.com) or visit my blog (www.shirleyjump.blogspot.com) where I post family favorite recipes and writing advice. And if you have a special pet in your life, share your story, and I’ll be sure to include it on my website!
Happy reading,
Shirley
One Day to Find a Husband
Shirley Jump
New York Times bestselling author Shirley Jump didn’t have the will-power to diet, nor the talent to master under-eye concealer, so she bowed out of a career in television and opted instead for a career where she could be paid to eat at her desk—writing. At first, seeking revenge on her children for their grocery store tantrums, she sold embarrassing essays about them to anthologies. However, it wasn’t enough to feed her growing addiction to writing funny. So she turned to the world of romance novels, where messes are (usually) cleaned up before The End. In the worlds Shirley gets to create and control, the children listen to their parents, the husbands always remember holidays, and the housework is magically done by elves. Though she’s thrilled to see her books in stores around the world, Shirley mostly writes because it gives her an excuse to avoid cleaning the toilets and helps feed her shoe habit.
