Honeymoon Husband

Blue-eyed blonde naïf Hannah Roberts can't believe her luck when she wins a Hawaiian wedding trip. She also can't believe it when Earl, her fiancé of five years, abandons her on the journey from Kansas to Maui. Things look up when she meets kindhearted astronomer Jeremy Gordon, but will he follow the comet he's just discovered or the stars in Hannah's eyes? What happens next isn't hard to predict, and when Earl makes his obligatory late, brief return, he's so dopey it's hard to imagine why Hannah was heartbroken about losing him in the first place. Eschewing any displays of affection beyond hand-holding and mild smooching, Marks (Geek to Chic ) offers a wholesome, slim sophomore effort that readers of chaste romances will relish. (Oct.)
