MILWAUKEE, Oct. 17, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Sometimes it takes a tragic situation to make two people realize their love for each other. In author Nora M. Gomez's new book, The Three Month Bride (now available through 1stBooks), long-time companions, Mara and Justin, band together to help A man in need.
Mara and Justin have been friends since childhood. When Blake, Mara's brother and Justin's best friend, is seriously injured in an accident, the two realize their true feelings. Their mutual love for Blake binds Mara and Justin together and, when Blake asks the impossible of them, they agree. In order for Blake and Mara to get their inheritance, Mara must marry. This impromptu marriage throws Justine and Mara awkwardly together.
They try to deny their feelings, at first, sticking with their individual plans. As the days go on, they slowly realize their love and the happiness that they find in each other. Set in a small town in Texas, The Three Month Bride is a heartwarming story of irony and unconditional love. It's a romance novel that touches one of the most intimate connections of human beings -- the power of love when it is rooted in friendship.
"There are so many surprises in relationships that we don't always know that sometimes the person in front of us is the person we are seeking. The story being told here brings to light the happiness that can be found from looking in front of you," Gomez writes.
Gomez is married and stays busy working, golfing, reading and writing. The Three Month Bride is her first endeavor in romance writing. She currently lives in Wisconsin.
