Fancy Meeting You Here by Julie Tieu

4.0

All of Elise’s closest friends are getting married within a few months of each other, and as a florist and a bridesmaid, she finds herself going above and beyond to help each of them. Her business is struggling and she needs the exposure these weddings will bring. One of the weddings in particular is extra high stakes. Her friend, Rebecca, is the daughter of a local politician so Elise needs this wedding to go well. She gets help from Rebecca’s brother Ben, who later offers her additional business designing flowers for his mom’s campaign events. As they work together a romance starts to develop but with some unintended consequences.

27 Dresses is one of my comfort watch movies, so I enjoyed when Elise compared herself to the movie fairly early on. The added bonus of her actually working all of these weddings as a florist was a fun twist. We all know I adore flowers so I enjoyed the look into the life of a wedding florist, and romances set against the wedding industry are quickly becoming a new favorite trope. What could be better than falling in love surrounded by love? I enjoyed Ben and Elise and how their relationship progressed, but the relationship between Elise and her friends was the real star of this show. This was a fun story and a quick read if you are looking for something cute and light.

Thank you to Avon Books and NetGalley for the advance copy.
