BLURB:
Kassandra
is a single, independent woman who prides herself on her own success. But when
she’s asked by her best friend Laura to be the Maid of Honor in her wedding,
Kassandra finds herself questioning her lifestyle. Helping Laura plan the
wedding is no problem—she’s done it before for all their other friends. The
first time was a blast, the second super fun, but doing it without receiving
any help from the rest of the girls gets old really fast.
The whole
event kicks off with the worst kind of surprise when Kassandra discovers who
her friend's fiancé really is, and she's torn between supporting Laura's future
happiness and hiding the deeply buried, intimate past she shares with the
groom-to-be. Struggling to be the bigger person and do all the hard work on her
own, Kassandra finds surprising comfort in Josh, the best man in the wedding
and someone she's been avoiding for years. He's charming, thoughtful, handsome,
and the worst kind of womanizer, but she just can't seem to stay away. All the
while, Kassandra can't help wondering if the wedding could be any more
cliché—until she finds unexpected ways to change things up a bit.

REVIEW
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While this looks like a story about how to put on a friends
wedding it is also a story about personal growth. Kassandra is about to be the last of her friends to still be
single. What is worse her best
friend Laura wants her to plan her wedding. After all she has done it for her other good friends so it
should not be that hard. Of course
things do go wrong and as the story moves forward so do the changes in
Kassandra’s life. It was fun to
follow Kasandra but also scary to watch as she realized that she was making
some of her own problems and only she could change her life. It was a nice HEA with a cliff-hanger
ending. Will another of Kassandra’s
friends get her own book. Looks
like it.

EXCERPT
From Chapter 1
Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. I’d heard that
saying more than once now. And I was about to hear it once again.
“Kassie! Kassie, wake up! I’m getting married,” a
high-pitched voice squealed at me at 3:00 a.m.
Who the hell is this? I had picked up the phone
without even looking at the caller ID. Oh, Laura. Great.
“Kassandra, are you listening? I’m engaged!” Laura
screamed from the other side of the phone.
“Yeah, wow,” I said. “Congratulations.”
“I can’t believe you, Kassie. You should be more
excited. You’ll get to be my bridesmaid!” The volume of her voice kept rising.
“I’m happy for you, Laura.” I really didn’t know at
the moment how I felt. I was trying to look around to see exactly where I was.
“Believe me. It’s just…it’s three o’clock, and I was sleeping.”
After looking at my surroundings, I remembered I
was in my own house. I had a minor headache, probably from all the drinking the
night before, and my body ached a bit. I looked beside me and found the reason
for my hurt.
Next to me I found the silhouette of a beautiful
man. The memories of the few hours before my abrupt awakening came back at me:
A bar. A blond. My home. Some sex...in that order.
“I know it’s late, but I had to give you the good
news.”
“And news it is.” She was the last of my best
friends who was single; not so long ago we roamed all the bars in town
together, looking for men to hook up with, and suddenly she was engaged.
