Overview:

Eleanor "Elle" is fun and outgoing. She's a talented young girl full of dreams and life...which makes her the exact opposite of what her stuck-up snobby family wants her to be.

Although Elle's been "disowned" for leaving behind the Mercer family name and fortune to pursue her dreams in Florence, Italy, her older sister decides to invite her to her wedding. Reluctantly, Elle agrees to be the M.O.H (Maid of Honor) and travels back to the States three weeks before the wedding.

What Elle finds there shocks her and takes her on a whirlwind adventure; the groom and future husband of the ever perfect Simone Mercer is an old flame of hers that's best left extinguished.

Will this trip serve as a means of closure for both, or will Elle end up Stealing the Groom?

Questions about the author...

When did you start writing?

I started writing when I was about eight years old. Of course it was full of awkward dialogue and structural errors, but that’s really when it all began. I didn’t actually pick up writing again until a few years ago. I’d forgotten how much I loved it.

How would you describe your writing style?

If I had to describe my style, I’d say it’s a giant concoction of others’ works I’ve emulated. Whether it’s a classic satire, comical coming-of-age, or a gut-wrenching romance novel, I think I’ve stolen little parts of others’ own unique styles and combined them with my own younger, more relatable tone.

Which song describes who you are? What’s your favourite verse?

'Yesterday' by, the best band in history, The Beatles. My favorite verse is the following:

There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

It seems impossible that a mere ten words could sum me up, but 'Yesterday' does a really good job. My regrets are a representation of who I am as a person.

What’s your biggest inspiration in life?

Definitely the uncertainly the future holds. I live life without complaint, or at least I try to. I can’t wait to see what it has in store for me, and the thought that one day I’ll look back at all my troubles and think that they were all necessary gives me the needed strength to keep going will make it all worthwhile.
