this did not go in a direction I thought 😭 but the ending was so cute pls!!!

the best (wo)man and the man of honor have to hunt down the groom on the day of the wedding, thanks to a bachelor party gone wrong 😅 and I would have loved to see a full length novel of this!!

what didn’t work for me was how rushed this felt… there were a lot of events that were alluded to or briefly mentioned that I would have loved to see fleshed out in a longer novel. and I didn’t feel the sparks between the MMC and FMC as much as I would have if I knew their full history!

still, ashley poston spins words into gold, and I laughed so hard at the antics in this one!! it just definitely would have benefited with a longer full-length story to get the full cuteness and characterization 🥰
