Always a Bridesmaid

A sunny bridesmaid-for-hire and a grumpy best man put love to the test in this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy.

Meet Randi Burnett—she’s brilliant, she’s beautiful, and she works for the bride. Missing groom? Intoxicated in-laws? Crying ring-bearer? You name it, she wrangles it. Too bad her personal life isn’t thriving like her side gig as a bridesmaid for hire. Recently dumped, Randi throws herself into her biggest challenge yet when she’s hired as a maid of honor and pretend best friend for an ice queen bride. There’s just one problem—the best man is infuriating, overprotective, and anti-marriage.

High school principal Will Valentine doesn’t believe in love. But his best friend is getting married after a whirlwind romance and has asked him to be the best man. So here he is, a man named for the patron saint of lovers, who doesn’t believe in the institution of marriage yet is somehow color coordinating for the event. No one is more surprised than Will when he starts falling for the bubbly and vivacious maid of honor who loves all things love, but strangely doesn’t seem to know the bride all that well.

But what happens when he discovers Randi’s undercover identity? What begins as a battle of wills between the two soon turns into a flirtatious game. Between cake tastings and dress fittings, will these two opposites find their own once-in-a-lifetime love?

Inclusive Love Story. Yes!

I enjoyed the banter. The plot was fun and flirty without being overly cheesy. Now the character building was my favorite part. Each character grew throughout the story. The diverse cast also kept you interested but did not detract you from the story.

Cutest little romantic story

I took a chance on this, because I, in fact, do judge books by their covers, and this looked really cute but I’m always afraid when books have this “cartoon” cover. The overall story was a little all over the place, and I got a little lost later in the book, but it was a nice snack-sized story. The female reader has an extremely raspy voice. I don’t know if that’s her natural voice, but it took A WHILE to get over the gravel sound. The male reader was good, and no complaints there.
Overall, if you want a short, snack-sized story it’s great.

Cute

This was the perfect short book with a tiny bit of twists but without all the drama

Mid

I listened to this book while I was at work and in one sitting and honestly, it could’ve been better. I’m not disappointed because it was free, but it’s not anything memorable or anything to brag to your book club about so.

ok

A story about a bunch of spoilt enttitled people who finally figured out that the world does not revolve around them in time to save their friendship.
