Never a Bridesmaid

An Always a Bridesmaid Romance

Opposites attract • Off-limits (Best friend's sister) • Forced proximity • Secret bargain • Wedding-season chaos • Virgin heroine

He’s juggling a summer of high-stakes weddings. She’s the last-minute bridesmaid who names her price. Catching feelings? Totally off-contract.

Professional groomsman Dylan Delaney keeps Savannah’s ceremonies running like a dream until his business partner is put on sudden bed rest with twins. With a calendar crammed full of events, he needs a miracle or at least another bridesmaid.

Enter Marina Rivera, introvert, bird-lover, future veterinarian, who’d rather talk to parrots than a roomful of strangers. She agrees to step in for the summer on one condition: in exchange for saving Dylan’s season, he’ll help her with one discreet, very personal first, the kind that doesn’t come with rose petals or promises.

It’s supposed to be simple. One secret. One summer. No strings.

But working side-by-side through flooded venues, moonlit rehearsals, late-night waffles, and a tuxedo kitten rescue turns heat into something that feels dangerously like forever. When their bargain refuses to stay casual and the truth risks getting out, will they walk away or rewrite the script for happily ever after?

Never a Bridesmaid is a steamy, feel-good contemporary romance packed with witty banter, emotional depth, and off-the-charts chemistry. It's an irresistible finale in the Always a Bridesmaid world that also reads perfectly as a standalone.
