Happy ever after…?Fascinated by weddings since her mother was jilted at the altar when she was seven years old, Amy Woods is a brilliantly efficient wedding organizer, thanks to her ability to see past all the emotion and magic of ‘the big day’. Now, after years of being the assistant, she’s landed her dream job as Wedding and Events Manager at exclusive boutique hotel The Lavington. All she needs to do is pull off her first wedding weekend without a hitch…
Unfortunately the groom turns out to be her own marriage-phobic ex-boyfriend, proving yet again that Amy is good enough to be the warm up act but never the real deal. Then she breaks all her own rules and sleeps with the delicious but definitely off limits best man! To pull off the perfect weekend now, she will need to be her most clear-headed and emotionless. But as she gets to know best man Owen outside the bedroom, keeping herself focussed on the task isn’t so easy anymore.
Review
Newly appointed Events Manager Amy doesn’t believe is love.
She’s watched her mum being jilted and had previous boyfriends break her heart.
Instead she pours her heart and soul in to creating perfect weddings for other
people and her first big wedding in charge just happens to be for ex-boyfriend
Luke. Determined not to let the past interfere with her future Amy tries to
bury herself in her work, but the very handsome best man and fellow work addict
Owen begins to get under her skin.
Spread over the course of the wedding weekend this novella
has the perfect pace as Amy battles with herself whether to let Owen into her
life and her bed…if she’s caught she loses her job. The chemistry between them
is brilliantly written and I think any woman would find it hard to resist
Owen’s charms. I loved all the little dramas that Amy has to overcome with her
job, which for me gave the story more depth. The build-up in this book is done
really well and although it’s short we are given a lot of insight into how
these two main characters tick.
This is my first encounter with Charlotte Phillips writing
and I really enjoyed the style and pace of writing and would I’d definitely
like to read something else from her, perhaps something slightly longer. This
is a great summer read perfect for a day at the beach. I’d rate it 5/5.
I’d like to thank Harper Impulse and Netgalley for my review
copy.
