One maid of honor, one best man, and together sparks fly what could possibly go wrong? Addison and Tucker’s story is one that had me smiling at their antics one minute then crying and heart shattering the next. The chemistry these two have is electric and their banter on point but underneath their “wild” ways are two broken people looking for more. The things they go through are so real and visceral that my heart ached knowing the pain they went through yet watching them grow while helping each other was pure beauty. The emotions felt so real at times I had tears in my eyes and I’m not a crier at all, it takes a lot for me shed tears over movies, books, etc. but things in real life can trigger me and this book had me emotional it felt that real. This author has a way to bring characters and stories to life this is one that really got to me and I loved the journey it took me on.

Another Snow Emmanuel book to read!
Like my previous reads, this one didn't disappoint me either.
This type of Romance is what I like. Something realistic and not just love in a flash. The transition from strangers to friends to lovers is natural and not rushed.
Addison, the female MC is a type of character I really adore. She is bold, sassy and strong. Something different from the damsels in distress who always seek sympathy.
Would definitely recommend this one.

This book was definitely wild.
I am not sure how Emmanuelle does it, but every character she writes I end up relating to in one way or another.
Addison went through so many heartbreaks and worries and at the end I related with her and what she went through, but Tucker is such an amazing guy (again he is very similar to my husband).
I connected to this book in so many ways, that it got the best of my emotions and the tears flowed.
The chemistry between Tucker and Addison is so strong and nothing to be messed with. The wild girl taming the womanizer. Being able to become close then best friends.
I honestly loved this book way more than I thought that I was going to. I always love an amazing HEA, even when it doesn't seem like it is going to happen.

4.5 Stars!
Addison Wilde is the maid of honor and Tucker Philips is the best man at their best friends’ wedding. Meeting at the joint bachelor/bachelorette party in Nashville, they hit it off immediately, but Tucker was warned to stay away from her - he’s a womanizer and she just swore off men forever after a tough heartbreak. She wasn’t given the same warning and their chemistry is way too strong for her to ignore, so when they break the rules, life throws lots of surprises their way.
Another fabulous book by Emmanuelle Snow! She has such a way of sucking you in with the chemistry of the characters she writes, and Tucker and Addison are no exception. Tucker may have been a womanizer and even when his innuendos started off pretty cringey, it was hard not to be drawn into him. This couple was SPICY, sweet, had the best banter, and their relationship really blossomed into something beautiful. Without giving anything away, the trials they went through together were written so wonderfully and they both had so much positive character development, both together and on their own. This book was funny, sad, sexy, emotional, and everything in between - Snow really takes you on an emotional rollercoaster!
This is the 4th book in the Carter Hills Band series, but they can all be read as standalones, so you can read this one and still be hit in the feels even without reading the first three books! Thank you SO much to Emmanuelle for including me in the ARC team for this book, it was an honor!

A cute love story with two people who are bound to fall in love. If you love a good best man meets the maid of honor and the rest is history, this book is for you. The characters are likeable and the plot is well paced. The love story is so heartwarming.

I found myself enjoying this story, although I think I still prefer Pink and Country. Addison and Tuck’s story is charming, sexy, and fun. Of course this story wouldn’t be classical Snow without some potentially problematic plot twists and drama. You do not need to have read any of Snow’s other Carter Hills Band books to read this story- so feel free to check it out if the story interests you (see the blurb below). I have so much to say about this story, but I’m trying not to give anything away. The only complaint I can possibly share is that I was going nuts reading the “ya” throughout the story; to be fair though, that’s probably because I’m a Californian 😂😭 I will remind you all that story is graphically sexual and is not meant for young teens or children.

This was such a sweet story I loved it. This is the first book I've read from this author and its definitely not gonna be my last. She wrote the story in such a way that had me connect and fall in love with all the characters.
I absolutely loved the fact that their relationship wasn't rushed. They took the time to become friends and get to know each other. I loved seeing them open each others heart up for one another.
The book is full of sweet, funny, steamy and sad moments. There was never a time where I was bored reading cause I just did not know what the characters would do or say next. They way they loved each other was insane they had amazing chemistry.
They are just two people that went through a difficult journey and because they learned to trust and love each other they came out stronger and happier at the end.
Like I said earlier it was a really cute sweet story!
