Two Wedding Crashers by Meghan Quinn
5.0

Loved!! 💕

I loved the first book in this series, Three Blind Dates, and so I jumped when the opportunity to review the second book came along. Just like the first one, this one was so good! In fact I liked it even better than the first one! We got to see our rebel from book one, I guess spoiler alert, that means Beck wasn't the one Noely chose in that first book. In this book he ends up crashing a wedding with his best friend and his best friend's wife. He figures he can use the weekend to have fun and find a hook-up with no strings kind of girl.

Rylee is crashing the wedding with her friend who is invited and her friend's husband, along with the third friend who is part of their little writing group. Rylee is a romance writer who has kind of lost her "mojo" She can't quite write about romance, she hasn't had any, nor sex, for awhile, and it is totally stifling her creativity. We hear that she's had a hard year, but it isn't until later in the book, in a very pivotal moment between Rylee and Beck, that we find out why her year has been such a rough one.

Of course as you may guess, Rylee and Beck do have fun, and while both set out to just have fun, Beck begins to think he wants more with her. There is something about Rylee that tells him maybe she is the one. But he has his own past, and his own issues, which we learn about pretty quickly in the story.

So many cute parts of this story. Go ahead, I dare you not to google baby red pandas when they do in the book. (Although I still say baby dachshunds are way cuter). There's a part when Beck is telling Rylee everything he's going to do to her when they get back to the room, and she doesn't hear a word because she's suddenly been struck with inspiration for a new story. When he realizes she didn't hear anything, he just lets her go on and tells her she'll just be surprised later. And then there were the tears at the end, when her situation hit really close to home with me and my own situation.

Only one complaint, she mentions her "inner goddess". No, just no. Don't go there. :-) Anyway, you need to read this series, you don't have to read them in order, although it was nice to know Beck a bit from the first one. And now I am looking forward to book three and who it will be about.
