Strictly speaking, it happened while helping to plan a wedding

May 11, 2014 by Malin Leave a Comment

WeddingSydney Sinclair has moved back to Chicago after years in New York. Her engagement ended badly just two weeks before the wedding, when she discovered her fiancee had been cheating on her. Now she’s completely done with commitment-phobic men. She wants a faithful husband and a family, and doesn’t have any more time in her life for casual dating. So when handsome and charming Vaughn Roberts approaches her after another failed first date in a coffee shop, she recognises his happy go-lucky playboy attitude a mile away, and can’t stop herself from venting all her frustration over him. Of course, she’ll never see him again, so it’s not that big a deal, is it?

It wouldn’t be much of a fun book if that was the end of it. Special Agent in the FBI Vaughn Roberts is the older brother of the man who Sydney’s younger sister has just gotten engaged to. The happy couple don’t realise that when they invite their siblings to an announcement dinner, said siblings met awkwardly in a coffee shop close by. Now their siblings want them to be best man and maid of honour, at a wedding that needs to be planned in a hurry. So Sydney and Vaughn are going to be spending a lot of quality time together, fighting their attraction for each other all the way, as even if they had mutual goals for the future, risking a messy future break-up when they’re set to become in-laws is just asking for trouble.
