Getaway Girl by Tessa Bailey (Paperback)

A warm, funny contemporary MF romance from Tessa Bailey, and the first book in THE GIRL series. This unlikely getaway driver never expected to help the mayor escape.

After a six-year absence, Addison Potts is back in Charleston to stir things up — and what better place to make her villainous return than her estranged cousin’s wedding? Only the nuptials hit a rather large snag when the bride doesn’t show, leaving Addison to play getaway driver for the jilted groom. A groom whose heartbreaking smile and deep southern drawl she really, really should not be noticing.

Elijah Montgomery Du Pont is the future mayor of Charleston. From his military career to city hall, every detail of his life has been meticulously planned — until now. His only respite from the sudden upheaval is Addison, his new and thoroughly improbable best friend. She makes him happy. She grounds him. And public disapproval be damned, he has no intention of giving her up. But with an election on the line and the pressure mounting, Addison — and the cruel hand of fate — might not leave him the choice. Charming, heated and full of banter, it’s an opposites-attract friends-to-lovers romance with a southern-charm streak.

For mature readers.

Perfect for readers who love a friends-to-lovers romcom, an opposites-attract pairing, a straitlaced hero falling for a troublemaker and plenty of southern charm and heat.
