Falling for the Best Man (Sisters of Wishing Bridge Farm #1) by Amanda Ashby

  Falling for the Best Man by Amanda Ashby

Blurb:

What's worse than running into your ex-hookup at the airport? When said 'hookup" is the best man for the most important wedding of your career, and he's on the hunt for a fake girlfriend. Between a hysterical bride and a wedding party gone wild, wedding planner Emmy Watson can’t afford any more disasters if she wants to save her beloved Wishing Bridge Farm. Which is why she puts the best man on lockdown. Unfortunately, he also happens to be the one guy who can make her forget everything except the way his kisses make her feel.

All Christopher Henderson needs is a fake girlfriend to convince his bosses that his bad boy reputation is a thing of the past so he can land his dream job. What better place to find said companion than at a wholesome vintage wedding. The only thing he didn't count on was seeing Emmy, the woman who dumped him. The one he hasn’t been able to get off his mind.

There's no denying the spark between them, but he’s a globetrotter and she’s a homebody, and falling in love is something neither of them has in their plans.


Another sweet read with many twists and turns that kept me glued to my reader.
What I really loved about this book was the fact that even though the hero and the heroine sometimes caved in when things got rough but miraculously they are capable of talking to each other, of not misinterpreting things every five seconds but to communicate - with each other to boot. Novel idea, right?

Despite the odds being rather stacked against them, somehow Emmy and Christopher just can't help falling for each other, again. You get the chemistry between them and you feel why they just have to end up with each other and I loved to see how it all came about. Throw in some meddlesome villagers in a great community in Sunshine, one of those villages where everybody knows everything about everybody, far-traveled stuffed alligators, two-foot high, preloved trophies and an ancient wishing bridge and you have a wonderfully romantic story with amazing characters in a place that makes you long to travel there and, of course, this simply has to turn out a really good book. 

I really enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to other books by Amanda Ashby, namely the next books in the series "The Wedding Planner's Baby" and "Dating the Wrong Mr. Right".
