Selbst ist die Braut (2009)
Die erfolgreiche Lektorin Margaret Tate macht es ihrer Umwelt nicht leicht. Vor allem ihr junger Assistent Andrew Paxton hat unter ihrer Ungeduld und ihren übertriebenen Ansprüchen zu leiden. Doch dann läuft das US-Visum der Kanadierin aus. Um ihre Ausweisung aus dem Land zu verhindern, muss sie schnellstmöglich einen amerikanischen Ehemann präsentieren. Keine einfache Angelegenheit für eine allein stehende Kratzbürste. In ihrer Verzweiflung erpresst Margaret den unbedarften Andrew, sich als ihren Bräutigam auszugeben. Dass damit ihr ganzes Leben auf den Kopf gestellt wird, ahnt sie nicht. Denn bei einem Antrittsbesuch bei Andrews Eltern in Alaska wird die Schwiegertochter in spe nicht einfach nur überschwänglich empfangen. Sie haben auch eine spontane Überraschungshochzeit geplant …
