The Bride Swap

Morally Grey Billionaires

The wedding planner’s biggest mistake? Falling for the groom.

The one man I cannot stand.
The one wedding I wish I never agreed to plan.
Liam Kincaid. Billionaire. Powerful. My best friend’s fiancé.
And now…my biggest problem.

He’s cold. Arrogant. Impossible.
The man has the emotional depth of a stone wall and treats his wedding like a business deal.
I should dislike him. I do dislike him.
Until one vivid dream changes everything.

Because when I close my eyes, it’s the memory of him that lingers, his voice in my ear, his presence consuming every thoughts.
This cannot happen.
It’s all wrong.
He’s meant for someone else.
So why does every part of me tell me I’ve already made the biggest mistake of all?

Intense chemistry, undeniable tension, and the start of a love story that was never meant to be. This is the prequel to The Proposal, Liam & Isla's story.

Just a teaser,

I liked it but it leaves a cliffhanger. I’m going to try one of the full included books before purchasing but I’m definitely curious.

Perfect prequal

I loved the story it's a perfect prequal to the Proposal, this explain so much of the mood in the Proposal. It is short and sweet, brilliantly written. It follows Liam and Isla and how she plans his wedding, the drama is all there and it was amazing

Love L Steele books

I very much enjoyed hearing this audiobook. It was short and saucy. Instantly hooked.

Slow-burn tension
Series prequel

This was a cute intro into the next book in the series and does a great job setting up Isla and Liam’s dynamic.

Roxy Isles captures Isla’s inner conflict and vulnerability beautifully, making her instantly relatable. Shane East brings Liam to life with a cool, controlled intensity that perfectly suits his emotionally guarded personality and makes the tension simmer.

It left me very curious about their chemistry and how their story will unfold next.
