The Wedding Crasher by Mia Sosa
The USA Today bestselling author of The Worst Best Man is back with
another hilarious rom-com about two strangers who get trapped in a lie
and have to fake date their way out of it...
Just weeks away from ditching DC for greener pastures, Solange Pereira
is roped into helping her wedding planner cousin on a random couple’s
big day. It’s an easy gig... until she stumbles upon a situation that
convinces her the pair isn’t meant to be. What’s a true-blue romantic to
do? Crash the wedding, of course. And ensure the unsuspecting groom
doesn’t make the biggest mistake of his life.
Dean Chapman had his future all mapped out. He was about to check off
“start a family” and on track to “make partner” when his modern day
marriage of convenience went up in smoke. Then he learns he might not
land an assignment that could be his ticket to a promotion unless he has
a significant other and, in a moment of panic, Dean claims to be in love
with the woman who crashed his wedding. Oops.
Now Dean has a whole new item on his to-do list: beg Solange to be his
pretend girlfriend. Solange feels a tiny bit bad about ruining Dean’s
wedding, so she agrees to play along. Yet as they fake-date their way
around town, what started as a performance for Dean’s colleagues turns
into a connection that neither he nor Solange can deny. Their entire
romance is a sham... there’s no way these polar opposites could fall in
love for real, right?
Happy 2023 my bookish friends!❣️✨ I started off this year with The Wedding Crasher by Mia Sosa! I'm trying to read some books that I already have - especially my old 2022 tbr - this month 😆 Let's see whether I can stick to it! But, honestly this was a book that I should've read earlier, especially when I'd enjoyed The Worst Best Man, but for some reason it took me so long to get it😂 I'm so glad I read it though because I was in the right mood for it! It had my fave trope - fake dating with a bit of forced proximity too!
Solange has been pulled into helping her cousin at a wedding when she runs into the bride declaring her feelings to someone who isn't the groom 😂 Talk about awkward. She doesn't want to ruin things but her past has her feeling sorry for the groom and just like you'd expect her to - she crashes the wedding and stops it. Surprisingly the groom - Dean, doesn't seem heartbroken over it. What she doesn't know is that this was something like a marriage of convenience for him and it's another thing on his list to check off along with making partner at the firm he works at.
A particular situation at work has him blurting out a lie that he's dating Solange. So he asks for her help in continuing this charade as the firm asks him to woo a potential hire - Kimberly and her partner and they're forced to take this scheme to the next level as they keep spending time with each other!
Totally loved the development of their relationship from the moment he handed her a dossier with all his info lol😆 Though Dean had a plan for his life, I loved the fact that he wasn't stuffy and was such a softie inside! Solange was amazing with her confidence and honesty! And the steam 🔥🔥🔥 don't get me started on that! Solange's family was so lively and amazing! Loved the bonds between the Tias and the cousins! Also the banter between them and between Dean and Solange was really good! It had all the vibes of a rom com but with lots of steam too! So that definitely worked out well for me!🤣
Hope you've all had a good start to your new year and I hope this one brings us all some amazing things(and books!)❣️✨
