ABOUT THE BOOK 

She’s a sunny, sassy photographer.

 Jolie Prescott has always been in love with love. She spent most of her life walking around with hearts in her eyes and immediately jumped at the chance to start a wedding planning company with her two best friends. So when her own fiancé called off their wedding and immediately started dating someone else, it was a major blow she never saw coming. The gossip about it finally starts to die down in her small town. Then her ex announced he’s engaged again. And his new fiancée just happens to be Jolie’s worst enemy. Which makes it really inconvenient that she can’t seem to stop thinking inappropriate thoughts about that woman’s moody half-brother. 

 He is the ultimate grump.

 Vaughn Cavanagh never thought he’d set foot back in Pembrooke, Wyoming after moving away when he was thirteen, but when his father gets sick, he uproots his life to try to repair their frayed relationship. The only thing standing in his way is his spoiled brat half-sister, her determination to throw the ultimate wedding, and her beef with a certain wedding photographer he can’t get out of his head. 

 When one impulsive act leads to Vaughn announcing he and Jolie are dating, the two have no choice but to fake their relationship to save face. But when feelings enter the picture and lines start to blur, Vaughn has to decide if he’s willing to give up his quiet, solitary life and stay in Pembrooke for a woman he never intended to fall for, or if he’s going to risk losing everything because he’s too afraid to take that leap.

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is an older series the author wrote in 2016-17. It was fun going back to Pembrooke and catching up with the other couples. It also is loosely connected to the authors Hope Valley series. In the Hope Valley series #10, Playing for Keeps we are introduced to Charlotte and Dalton. Dalton is from Pembrooke and is Jolie's brother. In this book we get to know his sister, Jolie who is 28 and has lived in Pembrooke her entire life. She loves the town and runs an event planning business with her two besties. 

Vaugn was born in Pembrooke and lived there with his father until he was 13, about twenty five years before as he is 38/39 now. He left because his mother wanted him to live with her. His father married and had a daughter and so he doesn't feel like he ever belonged there. He comes back to town because his father is sick and he wants to help him out by being there.

Vaugn is NOT a people person and Jolie LOVES people. This is very much an opposites attraction story with an age gap and also a fake relationship thrown in there. It was a really awesome story about family, friendship and going back home and facing your past.
