Decent Story, A Bit Confusing

I liked this story but I have to admit that after finishing it, I’m a little befuddled.

It almost seemed as if the author was setting up different sceneries for the conflict but wasn’t sure where she would take it, so a lot of things felt unresolved. I understand from reading the blurb for the next book that Levi has secrets and we will learn about them later, but if felt like nothing was answered in this one. At times it also felt like Jake was jealous of the attention that Veronica was giving Levi and it might be causing tension between him and his fiance. I was also a bit confused about Veronica abruptly leaving Paris and how it was never really discussed until later. Why didn’t Levi, or anyone else question it sooner?

It just felt like the story wasn’t completely developed but in a strange way it all worked. I think that the story was good, but it could have been amazing.

Ok this book was pretty darn cute. It was a fairly short read and pretty much everything you’d want and expect from it.
Veronica is a wedding planner down on her luck when her boyfriend leaves her for another woman. Only to return months later asking her to plan his wedding with this woman. I’m glad this wasn’t a story about breaking up an engagement, and wasn’t about them getting back together but finding something better in other people.
I will more than likely be reading the second book in the series hoping for more Veronica and Levi, since this book was more about her going though a break-up to a enemies-to-lovers story.
I feel like there could have been a little more angst but it was pretty good, even with the fake love triangles and whatnot.
I did feel it was a smidge rushed and could have focused more on building the relationship between her and Levi but I’m hoping that’ll happen in the second book.

This was a cute, funny book. I liked most of the characters, and the plot was well written. I think that some things could have been expanded on, but I have seen that there's a sequel with the same characters (it's a series that focuses on different characters, but this one seems to be two books). The sequel will probably focus more on their pasts and everything. 3.5 stars.

OH MY, but this book gives new depths & opens up new dimensions to the meanings of DRIPPY and SILLY.

Obviously, I did not expect anything apart from some mindless entertainment, but only got mindless.

If it wasn't for a team reading challenge, I would have dnf-ed it at chapter 3.

Anyway, enough said. Fortunately, it was a kindle freebie - small mercies and all that.
