“As a wedding planner, you'd think she would have the perfect wedding experience...
Sherilyn Caine
has left Chicago behind to marry Andrew Drummond IV, an Atlanta native with a
family name that tops all the social registers. Landing the job as The
Tanglewood’s wedding planner is a piece of cake for someone with a Type A
personality; she’s the perfect fit for a wedding destination hotel known for
its attention to even the tiniest details.
But when
everything else is going along swimmingly, why are her own wedding plans drowning
right before her eyes? One way or the other, Sherilyn is determined to make
this wedding work—until the latest development threatens to call the whole
thing off. Is it possible that Sherilyn is allergic to her fiancé?”

My personal Rating-
While I
didn’t laugh as much as when I read the first book in the series, I did still
laugh and enjoy this one! I personally would have like more faith content, but
I did like the ending. I could have done with less of certain comments and
kissing, though, similar to the first book as well.
See y’all
on Friday with a new review!
