May the Best Man Win by Mira Lyn Kelly
4.0
A fun wedding-centered romance
There was a lot to like about this story. It was a humorous tale of Jase and Emily and their torrid history. They are always being thrown together in wedding processions because they're similar heights, but they can't stand one another. They spend most of their time throwing insults at each other for the time they're forced to be together. They have a history that stems back to high school that is hinted at, but it takes forever for you to get an idea what the real problem was. I was a little torn while reading this for a few reasons. I was quite involved in the story because I liked the history and seeing how the relationship progressed, but at times there were things that made me confused about what was happening and where we were in time. It jumps forward a lot to fast forward you though their tale, but I wanted it to slow down a little. It is a delicate balance when writing this type of story to make sure all the good stuff is in there. The important things definitely were included, but perhaps I was so invested in the story that I just could not get enough. Jase was hot and it was fun to see the man being the one pushing the relationship while the woman is the hesitant one. The bedroom scenes sure were hot, and my pulse was pounding with every kiss. There is mild conflict and drama, but overall the story is pretty light-hearted and fun to read. I'd recommend this as a great summer beach read. I received a copy of this story for an honest review.
