Thanks to Forever for the copy of this book!

Did I request this solely for the male MC with tattoos on the cover? Absolutely. Did he live up to all my expectations in this book? Also yes. I *love* a grumpy/sunshine trope, especially when he’s sarcastic and secretly super sweet florist. Elliot is just so endearing - I loved him so much. Ama was his perfect counterpart, and I loved her profession as a wedding planner organizing a high-profile wedding during the course of this story. Ama and Elliot had such a great dynamic in both the past and present timelines, and stemming their relationship from the perspective of wedding planning and marriages worked so well. Julie Soto wrote a great romance with lots of good plot and a fantastic villain - I’ll definitely be back for more of her writing!

Read if you:
- love the grumpy/sunshine trope
- dig a guy with tattoos
- are interested in wedding planning
- can handle some steamy scenes or are fine flipping a few pages
