Stand-In Groom / Suzanne Brockmann / 155 pages / Christy Award 2011

Chelsea Spencer is mugged at 7 AM in Boston by 3 teen aged hoodlums. They steal her purse including the flash drive that contains all her last night's work. Giovanni Anziano (Johnny) Comes to her rescue, driving a Meals on Wheels truck. Chelsea is about to inherit $250,000 from her grandfather but she must be married to receive it. She had made a deal with an Italian prince to wed her. After she received the money, they would have the wedding annulled. Unfortunately, the prince calls to renege. He is marrying someone else. Johnny agrees to be the "stand-in groom".

I was surprised this was a Christy Award as references to faith were meager and the romance steamy.
