From the author of The Proposal, a Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club Pick!

One of Cosmopolitan's 33 Books to Get Excited About in 2018!

A feel-good romance to warm your heart, for fans of Jo Watson, Sarah Morgan and Holly Martin. A groomsman and his last-minute guest are about to discover if a fake date can go the distance in this 'charming, warm, sexy gem of a novel' (Roxane Gay).

On the eve of his ex's wedding festivities, Drew Nichols is minus a plus one. Until a power outage strands him with the perfect candidate for a fake girlfriend...

Agreeing to go to a wedding with a guy she gets stuck with in an elevator is not something Alexa Monroe would normally do. But Drew's proposal proves hard to resist.

After their wedding date turns into a whole weekend of fun in San Francisco, Drew and Alexa return to their all-consuming careers - his in LA and hers in Berkeley. Too bad they can't stop thinking about each other...

It could be the long-distance dating disaster of the century - or Drew and Alexa could be just a flight away from what each of them truly wants.

For me this book is a 7/10. It’s not the best book and it was definitely worth a read. It’s not the average interracial love story so I’m great fun for that. Race wasn’t brought up too many times. Showed actual hard ships a relationship goes through that doesn’t revolve around cheating or domestic violence. Can’t wait to read the next book. Already ordered.

I loved this book so much!!! I literally couldn’t stop reading it. Alexa and Drew are top 3 book couples( if this isn’t a thing, it should be)

Listen I like romance books, because honestly I want my life to be like a real life Hallmark Christmas movie. So yes this book is predictable, but that doesn't detract from its appeal at all—I wanted to scream at Drew and Alexa for not being honest and telling each other how they feel, and you worry some ridiculous artificial barricade will keep them from being happy.

This was a very lighthearted fun book. Also, fake dating is becoming one of my favorite tropes. As fun as this read was but it didn’t shy away from tackling issues like race, privilege, and self-confidence as well.
Highly recommend!! Can’t wait to start the next book is this serious

But I’m putting 3 people on notice( you know who you are) neither one of my best friends have showed up at my house with burgers, fries and beers when I’m having a bad day, also Drew took a last minute random flight to see Alexa after only a week and a half of not seeing her. Meanwhile…… 😂😂😂😂

3.0 out of 5 stars THE WEDDING THAT ALMOST WASN'T!!!

I really wanted to like this book a lot, but it fell short. I gave this book 3 stars because I felt like the two main characters was too winey and immature so that made it kinda hard to read and keep my attention. Alexa really got on my last nerve with all the self-doubt. I don't even know how she was the Mayor's right hand girl when she lacked confidence in everything she did. . She second guessed herself on everything she did. As for Drew I really really wanted to like him but he was so withdrawn & distant except to Alexa I guess. He surely did not deserve Carlos friendship. This book was just ok at best.. What I won't be doing is reading the second book or any more pf this series because I cannot go though no more of Alexa & Drews silly high school love affair. This really could have been a very nice love story but it lacked maturity... One thing we know for sure is that Alexa loved donuts.
I do love the way they met and I love the way it ended. The love affair started in the elevator and ended in the elevator... That was good.

Alexa- a woman who lacks confidence & self worth.

Drew- a man who is capable of true love but still needs guidance.

Carlos- a good friend who can be a little overbearing at times but nevertheless a good friend.

Maddie- a woman who shows herself friendly.

Moral: When a good thing falls in your lap take it and soar.

signed: I'm over Alexa & Drew love affair.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really, really good.

Is there a difference between a romantic novel and a romance novel?

Is it fair, for instance, to compare Pride and Prejudice, with its deep classical theory and commentary on class struggles, to Julia Quinn’s Bridgeton novels with their keen observation of society and love? Is one better than the other?

Let me admit something to you. It is not something I am proud of. I AM A BOOK SNOB. There I have admitted it. Judge me. I deserve it.

For years I have been a slave to the expectations of my education. Ever since I read Nabokov and Joyce in a freshman lit course, I only read important books. The ones that win the Booker prize or the National book award. You know - weighty novels. I had begun to believe what my professors taught me - that what you read matters and maybe if you read more important books you are better than other people.

But in the last year (maybe it was COVID) something snapped and I developed a romance addiction. And I mean addiction ... in 2020 I read 291 romance novels and I didn't start until March. This year I have already completed 82. And I have learned a few things.

I was the dumb one. I missed out on something enjoyable because of a preconceived notion. Granted, I found where some of those notions come from. There are some absolutely atrocious romance novels out there.

But then - and here is the review - I get lucky enough that someone recommends a book like Jasmine Guillory's The Wedding Date where the main characters are equals. Both Alexa and Drew are smart and funny. The book and the characters have personality. They fall in love with each other, with a few bumps along the way, in a funny, honest, and then all-consuming way.

From the moment I picked this up, I was hooked. It is a story with heat, heart, and substance. It reminded me that my current addiction is OK. There are great books in the genre that are also extremely well written.

Is this destined to be a classic? Probably not. Will it make the list of best books ever? Not likely.

But this is good. Really, really good.

There is nothing more cliché than a romance that starts with someone needing a wedding date or a fake-to-real relationship or a guy that is afraid to commit and a girl that is somewhat insecure in dating, nonetheless, this book turns the cliché into an engaging reading. The characters are multifaceted and very charming millennials. It is a light-hearted romance, to read it all on a Sunday afternoon.

This book was fun, romantic, entertaining and entertaining !

I really liked the two main characters, Alexa and Drew. Alexa was a dedicated, hard-working, and smart woman. I loved her passion for her work and how much she wanted to help her community. Drew was a kind, charming, and swoon-worthy man. I also was so surprised by the development and inclusion of so many wonderful side characters. I knew Drew’s friend Carlos already since I read “The Proposal” first when it was a @hellosunshine book club pick and that book is “his” story ... I genuinely loved every character that the author created in this story. I am going to read the other two books in this series because I cannot stop thinking about these characters!

The romance between Alexa and Drew was perfectly paced and executed. The way their relationship developed felt so honest and realistic. Their relationship slowly changed from a fake relationship into a real relationship with deep feelings. It was so much fun watching them take chances together and realize how perfect they were for each other. Alexa and Drew were so supportive of each other and genuinely wanted to see each other succeed. Their dedication to each other made my heart grow 50 times bigger.

Even though there were moments of predictability, this book was still extremely enjoyable! The author did a great job at keeping the book entertaining and hilarious! There were moments of miscommunication, which was understandable but so frustrating! The miscommunication definitely added a lot of tension between Alexa and Drew which kept the plot moving and it felt realistic.

Overall, this was a wonderful romantic comedy. If you are in the mood for a charming, hilarious, and adorable romance novel, a quick read, then I definitely would recommend this book!
