Wedding planner Alex Haynes is left heartbroken and humiliated when his fiance leaves him at the altar. Too ashamed to show his face in Manhattan again, Alex flees for his upstate hometown and vows never to plan another wedding again. When his best friend announces her engagement, she begs him to reconsider his decision. Torn between his duty as BFF and his newly acquired cynicism for love, Alex reluctantly agrees. Little does he know that by agreeing to do so, he's also agreeing to work with his high school bully, Hank Morrison.

Once a college football star heading for greatness, Hank Morrison now runs the inn he inherited from his aunt in the small town of Redwood. The problem is, his aunt's beloved inn isn't getting business, and with the bank threatening repossession, Hank needs to come up with a way to acquire money fast. When his high school nemesis and first love interest, Alex, shows up wanting to plan a wedding at the inn, he can't turn down the kind of money on offer. Even if it means having to deal with the uptight wedding planner who always thought he was too good for him.

Contains mature themes.

such a sweet story

This story had a little bit of everything. Second chance, enemies to lovers and small town romance. loved it all. great narration too.

Sweet story with spice.

The characters were charming and the story lovely yet typical. Not too much angst. Didn’t live the narrators voice too old man like for 29 year olds

A story of struggle and triumph for 2 very different men.

Although a bit shaky start, the twists and turns become moderately predictable. Very expressive actor, though som of the voices became blurred.

The liked the story line.

Most rsecond chance romance novels are about ex lovers getting back together, this time, it a second chance at love for someone who was never given achnace before and this time he was able toe express homself and find the love that he''s been yearning for for so long. I really enjoyed this novel and I loved the fact that I did nog drag in forever.

It gets better.

A sweet story of recovery from hurt and two people. reconnecting. and finding love. Great cast of minor caractots who help keep the plot interesting and moving along..
