- THE WEDDING CRASHER is a joyride of a romance novel, with increasingly ridiculous situations, great chemistry between the leads, and a stellar supporting cast.
- I also love a book set in my beloved DC: we aren't generally thought of as a romantic town, so I very much enjoy seeing characters visit shops and neighborhoods I love in a romance novel.
- Okay though, here's my issue with this book. Dean is basically actively searching for a nonromantic relationship. There's even a conversation near the beginning when he's quite sharp about how not everyone is "wired for romance." It's a perfect setup for having an aromantic hero. And...nothing. It's not quite "you just haven't found The One," but Solange definitely makes him change his mind about romance. It didn't put me off the book but was a bit frustrating.
