Hi Noah.A favor please.Don't bite the bridesmaid.Bite me instead.Seriously....Loved this book!Not only is Alice a bridesmaid without a date, but she is going to be stuck on a ship for her sister's wedding with her 'greater-than-thou' ex-fiancee, Brent, who happens to be the best man.Noah is running from his own problems, and begrudgingly accepts to pose as Alice's date. You can tell he is already kind of sweet on her, though he tries not to admit it to himself. But after meeting Brent, who is absolutely detestable, posing as her boyfriend is no chore. His protective feelings for Alice only grow stronger as their connection deepens.There weren't a lot of twists and turns in this story, and I wasn't really expecting any. It follows the usual 'romance' formula of guy meets girl, they fall in love, hit some conflict that keeps them apart long enough for them to recognize they can't live without each other, and have a happy reunion. And of course, great sex. Can't leave that out. But what made this book unique for me was the level of tension and suspense, conflict, drama, eccentricity and the surprisingly funny moments woven in. And it was great to see Alice really gain a backbone by the end of this story, and stand up for herself.It was a fun and endearing story line, with such a diverse cast of characters that it was impossible to be bored for a single second.Excellent novel!For this and more reviews, visit us at Bookluvrs Haven(dot)com.This novel was kindly provided by the publisher via Netgalley for an honest review.
