Arizona Bride - Paperback

Erica had always been interested in becoming a clothing designer. She grew up in foster care, where she and the other children got hand-me-down clothes that usually didn't fit. So Erica would remake them into new outfits for herself and the other children. At 16, Erica got a job, moved into an abandoned car, and put herself through high school. After graduation, Erica started college and worked for a professor helping to take care of his wife Lulu who had ALS. She taught Erica how to sew and helped her build her portfolio. After graduating with top honors, Erica headed to Arizona to interview with a prestige wedding dress designer, but her car broke down, and she missed her opportunity. Nonetheless, everything happens for a reason. Erica learned that love was a real possibility and found a place to call home, a family she had always wanted, and that fairy tales could come true.
