This was okay, but it was kind of bland. Nothing really happened and we sort of just sped through the whole thing. It had no stand-out moments, although I wouldn’t say it was really boring either. It was just okay.

3.5 stars. I was surprised that Jory mentioned Sam wanting the standard wedding vows since they wrote their own for their wedding in Canada. I remember Dylan mentioning their weird vows while Jory was mad at Sam for hanging with the "hyena" at Michael's wedding. Vows written by Jory would be hysterical, and Sam's while not necessarily meaning to be would be completely sweet and romantic. I could have done with less ridiculous drama and more Sam, Jory, the kids and the rest of the family and friends time. I can't believe Lily came back. I feel really sorry for her that she wasn't able to move on from a homophobic, dirty cop by now.

Ugh I love Jory and Sam so hard. I just love everything about this world and wish I could live there. Mary is one of my favorite authors in this genre. Thanks to her for putting this book out for free ;-) I miss everybody already...

It was so so so good! The only thing was there was 20 pages of promotional stuff at the end. I got to page 50 thinking I had at least another 10 pages left, I could have cried! But thank you [a:Mary Calmes|3152411|Mary Calmes|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1473696272p2/3152411.jpg] for giving us this little gem!

Always a pleasure to revisit our friend Jory and his guy Sam. Never a dull moment.
