When you accidentally convince the bride to leave the alter... and then fall for said runaway bride, you know life’s going to be complicated. Lizzie dreams about opening up her own gym but for now she is working at a gym and wants the promotion that could help her get a start on her dreams. She works with her best friend James, the son of the gym’s owners who got her the job. When James begs her to go with him to his sister’s wedding she can’t help but cave despite how much she doesn’t want to. At said wedding she meets a cute girl in the restroom who is crying and asking for relationship advice, so Lizzie gives it to her: don’t be in a relationship if you are not in love and just break it off.... and what does said girl do? Well she does break it off, right at the alter, and now Lizzie know’s she’s screwed. Whats Lizzie didn’t realize that said girl was the bride and she just ruined her bosses’s kid’s wedding and she knows if her bosses ever found out she would be fired. What she didn’t expect was to keep running into the runaway bride, Cara, and that Cara would want to spend more time with her. What starts off as just friendly run in soon turns into dates and something more, but with so many secrets and Lizzie having to deal with Cara’s family, can she continue to let herself be stepped over or will she finally stand up for herself and what she deserves. I want to start off by saying this started off really cute and I was so excited but by the end of the book I was just irritated and honestly, none of these people deserve Lizzie, I wanted so much more for her. Lizzie is a great friend and is so sweet, but James and Cara, as well as Cara’s parents and Lizzie’s parents, were just bad for her, James is a terrible friend and Cara was just spoiled and honestly they were all kind of toxic for her. In Lizzie’s words: they are all the worst people she’s ever met and I just wanted the book to end off with her going after her dreams and finding someone else to love her and finding other friends cuz this aint it babe. Honestly the way that Lizzie lets herself be stepped on and used is just sad to read and I was so happy for her when she finally voiced her opinions and spoke up for herself. But in the end, I guess Cara is who Lizzie wants and that’s it. Overall it’s a cute romance. sort of, and if you like stories about a rich girl and a poor girl falling for each other than this might be for you.
