A brand new standalone grumpy sunshine summer holiday romance.
The best man ghosted me six years ago after kissing me, and now I have to plan every wedding event under the sun with him.
Nate Stiles is the definition of serious. Furrowed brow? Check. Rain cloud personality? Double check.
I shouldn’t be thinking about the fact that our kiss was the best one of my life right now. I should be planning the bachelorette party of the millennium.
I shouldn’t be wondering when Nate became such a good dancer after we got roped into salsa lessons with the happy couple. I should be mentally ticking off boxes on my bridal checklists.
I shouldn’t be wondering what it would be like if I didn’t hate Nate Stiles. I should be holding strong against a man who doesn’t believe in love.
My name is Essie Lovelock. I am a reformed love obsessed fairytale fanatic and I’m determined to be the best maid of honor my best friend could ever have.
And I am absolutely not going to fall for the best man.

MY REVIEW
Essie and Nate are stuck together, planning his brother and her best friend's wedding. It shouldn't be an issue being in such close proximity, but he ghosted her years ago after a kiss and was supposed to call. Did he? No, of course not. And now he hates her apparently. His grumpiness is legendary, and she's not about to put up with it. Or at least, that's what she tells herself...until the real Nate starts peeking through and she can't help herself from falling for that side of him.
The banter is snarky and witty and fun. The couple is grumpy/sunshine adorableness. And they are individually such great characters separately who complete each other when they fall in love. Their journey had its highs and lows, and their backstories were a bit heartbreaking, especially Nate's, but by the end, I was smiling so hard as they finally opened up and got on the same page at the same time. I love this couple and their story - their delicious chemistry, their enemies vibe that didn't really disguise their real feelings, and how their emotional bond only strengthened with each page.
