Publisher's summary

Fans of Debbie Macomber and Susan Mallery will fall in love with New York Times best-selling author Ginny Baird’s hilarious and unique take on weddings.

Hotel magnate Brent Albright is poised to marry a woman he’s not totally wild about purely for business reasons. His betrothed, busy wedding planner Jackie Webb, has an equally impersonal agenda. But when the wedding week arrives, Brent’s surprised to learn that his brassy bride-to-be has an addictively warm, soft, and funny side. She not only charms his family, his fiancée captures his heart in a way he never thought possible. Suddenly marriage sounds a whole lot better....

Hope Webb has spent her entire life getting her twin sister Jackie out of fixes, and now Jackie’s in the biggest fix of all. She can’t eke out enough time to attend her own pre-wedding parties in beautiful Blue Hill, Maine. What starts out as a favor to impersonate the bride-to-be for one event turns into an all-week affair...and saying “I do.” Hope has helplessly fallen for the groom, and he’s fallen for her, but when the ruse inevitably unravels, she’ll lose the marriage - and the man - she’s always wanted.

Could NOT put it down.

I Loved this book! The reader did a great job! The author did a wonderful job telling the story! no sex scenes just some passionate kissing! which is how I like my books! I would let my teen read this book.

It’s fine.

Not a masterpiece in any sense of the word but it’s an alright romance novel. The characters are pretty one note, not a lot of personality. The love story isn’t deep and it’s a pretty generic concept. But nothing put me off and it’s fun enough to listen to.

Loved this book!

Well written, entertaining, pulls at the heart strings, even shed a few tears. The narrator was perfect in her portrayal. I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent with these characters.

Good Book

This is the first book I've read/listened to from this author. She did a great job developing the characters and the HEA. The narrator was great. I'm very picky but MS. Why made me feel like part of the story and not being read to.

Good with a side of cringe

This book was hard for me to get through occasionally. Even through there was plenty of falt with the sister, Hope made this cringy . She kept making excuses the whole time, just ugh. Made it to the end eventually, it was sweet.

Captivated till the end

I loved this book very much. I gave only 4 stars because I wanted to find out more about what happened to the secondary characters in the end. We only hear about one.

Sweet

This is a sweet story, even though it’s predictable. If you enjoy a PG-rates romance that’s light and easy then this is for you.
The narrator’s voice and speech pattern is a bit wooden to my ears, but that’s subjective for each listener.

Feel good story

I enjoyed this story very much. It was entertaining from the start. It was humorous and romantic. It was clean.

A light and romantic read!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! It was light, refreshing, sweet, loving and I could totally see this being a lovely little Rom-Com. I hope other readers enjoy it as much as I did!

Didn’t love it!

I had a hard time with this story. It started out pretty good, but the deception went too far. I don’t think anyone would go through with this to such a degree in real life unless they were a total asshole….. and we as an audience are supposed to understand and sympathize with these characters?? Not me! It became too unrealistic.
