It’s take two for these college BFFs.
The last person Austin Mariani expected to see when he showed up to work on the set of Wedding Games was Harper Hudson , the perfect girl he let get away. Now he’s putting his career—and his heart—on the line by sneaking around to help find a runaway bride.
Harper has spent years rebuilding her life in Wellspring after taking a chance at love in college and striking out. With a successful bakery downtown, she finally feels like her life is falling into place—until her sister disappears in the middle of filming a reality wedding show. Now the only person she can go to is the same guy who broke her heart four years ago.
When Austin and Harper’s search drags them all over Wellspring, long-lost feelings resurface. Can Austin and Harper rekindle the relationship they once had? Or is the pain too deep to recover?
Tune into Wedding Games to find out!

No, what he wanted to do was pull Harper into his arms and kiss her like crazy.
Swoon. Sigh. Repeat. This book was one of my mosttttttt anticipated reads, and it did not disappoint!!

I loved the bickering moments between Harper and Austin. The awkward moments. The tender moments. All the moments, really. They were just sooooo good together! I also loved how Austin needed a plan for everything, I'm not always like that... but I tend to feel the same way as he did. On the other hand, I could also relate to Harper's clutter. 😉
Oh! Even though I don't want to give any spoilers, I have to mention one of my favorite parts, so let me just say this: CABIN. That's it.

Another thing I want to mention, is that I was actually caught by surprise with how something played out in the book. Normally, I tend to predict a lot of things and end up being right (which can be fun, but also a little frustrating), so it was nice that I didn't realize what was going on ahead of time. Gosh, I hope that made sense. 🙄
Am I done yet? Nope. I still need to share some quotes/lines! 😏
“I guess you don’t need me, do you?”
“Don’t say that,” she said, so softly he wasn’t sure he’d heard her right. But his heart nearly burst anyway.
📖
“Good.” Sienna leaned in and kissed her cheek. “I love you. I’m sorry that this Austin guy is such a jerk. You’re gorgeous and amazing. And until you find a guy who can appreciate you, and won’t lie to you, don’t settle.”
📖
The tightness in her chest loosened a bit at the calm smile on his face. Austin would fix this. He could fix anything. Just not her broken heart, unfortunately.
📖
How had he watched her bake treat after treat in college and not realized how undeniably attractive she was when she was baking. Or taste-testing.
📖
Also, even though it may seem weird to share the book's dedication, I just have to! It's too sweet!!
this is for Elle because she really is a superhero, and she can’t edit this out because we added it after she proofread

As far as content goes: CLEAN! Meaning that there wasn't any "actual" language, (everyone does have different preferences and viewpoints on what counts as profanity though).
I do want to say that even though Austin and Harper got their HEA, the book does end with a cliffhanger feel… but that’s only to set the scene for the next book, understandably. Just make sure you read the final book (like I'm going to), and you should be good to go!! 😉 💕
~I received an e-copy of this story from the author, and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
