My Review:
The Wedding Date Deal is a fun fake-dating romcom.
I felt bad for Annie; she was experiencing a string of bad luck that had put her in a financial bind.
I also felt bad for Grant, having to go to his brother's wedding when he was marrying Grant's ex-fiancée!
This is a quick read, full of humor and heart. Don't be fooled, though; both main characters have struggles that they need to work through. The main characters are likeable and will have you rooting for their happily-ever-after. There is also a great cast of side characters, most notably Annie's Gram and Grant's nephew Rowan.
★★★★/5
Synopsis (Goodreads):
He needs a girlfriend and she needs some cash. Both of them get more than they bargain for when they strike an unusual deal.
Grant
- The last thing I want to do is watch my brother marry my ex-fiancée.
Nothing good can come from showing up to the wedding alone and revealing
to my family just how much I haven’t moved on.
If I had a
girlfriend, it might be a different story, but I’m definitely not ready
for another relationship. My best friend’s suggestion that I hire a fake
girlfriend is out of the question – except that it seems like the
perfect solution to Annie’s dilemma, too.
Annie - I’ve never been
a damsel in distress, but a streak of bad luck has left me so short on
cash that when Grant proposes a deal that will help get my bank account
back on track, I have to at least consider it.
All I have to do
is pretend to be Grant’s girlfriend for a couple days at his brother’s
beach wedding. Sure, it’s an unconventional arrangement, but how bad
could it be?
The Wedding Date Deal is a sweet romantic comedy
that will keep you laughing as you travel from Nashville, TN to the
beaches of Florida. If you like meddling friends and family plus a
slow-burn romance with chemistry but not too much heat, this is the book
for you!
Tropes:
Fake dating
Rich boyfriend
Family drama
Slow burn romance
Closed door/kissing only
