5 stars

This is the follow on story from [a:Jennifer Snow|896589|Jennifer Snow|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1409269046p2/896589.jpg]’s last book, and another in the Wild Wedding Nights series, [b:Her Holiday Fling|31521853|Her Holiday Fling|Jennifer Snow|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1478654431l/31521853._SY75_.jpg|52206298]. You don’t have to have read that one to enjoy this one, although it does help you understand Kate’s own disastrous almost-wedding.

This is a fairly simple story. Boy and girl meet and sparks fly. Then more sparks, this time in irritation, when they realise how they are connected. Then, what should just be angry or emotionless sex turns into something a little more complicated. Because of this, and because of the smooth writing style, it’s a quick read that's very enjoyable.

I liked Kate - she’s got a vulnerability but at her heart she’s a confident, no-nonsense woman who goes out and gets exactly what she wants. I didn’t identify with her but I did like her. Scott, however, I loved from the first moment that the author likened him to Henry Cavill - swoon! Seriously though, he was a fun, at times grumpy, cheeky, stubborn man who was the perfect foil for Kate. I enjoyed them together, too - their chemistry just smouldering enough to make the love scenes give you that flip in your tummy.

The storyline of the 'secret' that Liz (the bride-to-be) is keeping was an interesting one. I wasn’t sure how I felt about it and wasn’t sure if I should be angry, jealous, annoyed…I guess I was feeling exactly the same was that Kate was supposed to be feeling so the author did a great job with that one.

If I had one complaint about this book it’s that I always want an epilogue. Show me the couple a month, year, 5 years into their relationship. It adds so much but is left out so often. But other than that, this was a really enjoyable book that’s a light and quick read. 5 stars.
