review 1: It's not often to come across the perfect combination of chic lit./romance/and comedy. Dakota is the perfect heroine because she is realistic, funny, and tenacious. Brendan is the long lost best friend who is both supportive and studly. They start off as friends, because she was recently stood up at the alter, and become lovers as the story progresses. The supporting cast made of Dakotas' family, friends and coworkers are both hilarious and realistic. I recommend thisbook to anyone who likes humorous romances with a sexy twist.I was given a free copy for an honest review.
review 2: In a nutshell:Dakota Hallifax is 100% type A. (Having those tendencies myself, I appreciate this.) So being a wedding planner is readytowedpretty much the perfect occupation for her.... more But how do you plan the biggest wedding of your career when your wedding just crashed and burned with a no-show groom?Just when Dakota is sure that her life is a total mess, her childhood best friend Brendan West moves back to town. He helps her pick up the pieces.The Good:There’s a lot that I loved about this book. I’m a total sucker for happily ever afters, and this book has an awesome one. No, I won’t tell you what it is.Beyond that, I like Dakota. I can relate to being something of a control freak and can sympathize with her mother issues. I also like the fact that in spite of the utter blow of having her fiance stand her up at their wedding (mental note: do not get married on a cruise, because awkward if it doesn’t work), she doesn’t completely fall apart.True, I wanted to slap her when she actually considered giving the jerk another chance, but really, who can blame her? Been there, done that.Then there’s Brendan. Who doesn’t love a genuinely nice guy? Especially one who swoops in with a nice broad set of shoulders just when you need them? It doesn’t hurt that he’s a hottie and wears suits to work ;)Jillian, Dakota’s catering bestie, is awesome. She’s all snarky and no nonsense. She’s the kind of friend that everyone needs at least one of. Completely supportive in every way, but doesn’t pull punches or sugarcoat things.I also love her color coding system for bride moods. It’s kind of awesome and I may just steal it for my personal mood ring.The Bad:There’s that whole getting stood up at the altar thing, that’s bound to give any girl (or guy!) nightmares about getting married. Just breathe through it and keep reading! It works out.Overall:This is a great read. It hits you in all the feels and I admit to getting a tad weepy there at the end. I hope to see Jillian’s story at some point in the future. less
