Review: Cute, sexy, but felt a bit forced at the same time.

I have a love/hate relationship with this wedding dare series. I'm not sure what Entangled was doing when they suggested this. I don't believe authors should be pressed into a writing mold. And I kind of felt that this story didn't mesh to well with Samanthe Beck.I'm a HUGE Samanthe Beck fan. Don't get me wrong. I've been hooked since Private Practice and even MORE hooked after Lover Undercover. But this story just didn't feel right.Sophie is just a little TOO shy. A little TOO hung up on the fact that she used to be pudgy. There was A LOT of insecurity in this story and I didn't love it.Oh, but I loved Logan, I did. And there was a certain tie scene that was OVER-THE-TOP-HOT.But other than that this story was just *cute* and it ends there. I had a hard time getting through the beginning. There was a lot of placement description (who sat where, drank what, did what) and I felt it was a little unnecessary. It withdrew from the story itself. I have to be honest, I don't much care how the groomsmen lined up at the bar and on which stool they sat. Why bother going into such detail, other than to fluff the book?I hate leaving criticism for authors that I love. I still love you Ms Beck. I'm just not so sure that you loved this story. It kind of shows. Maybe you did and it just fell flat for me?Either way, I'm looking forward to the next Samanthe Beck book. And you should still read this. You might like it. It's still cute. I still rate it 4 stars.
