Every single one of Elise Ngo’s close girlfriends—Rebecca, Jesse, and Beth—is getting married within the same few months, and every single one of them has asked her to be both bridesmaid and florist. Though it’s a lot for her to juggle, the work and exposure is a boon to her struggling flower shop.

The stakes are high at Rebecca’s high-profile wedding, where the guests are mostly political connections of Rebecca’s parents. Desperate for the event to go off without a hitch, Elise enlists the help of an outside caterer who turns out to be Ben Yu, Rebecca’s elusive younger brother.

Though Ben is prickly and aloof, he offers Elise much needed business designing flowers for his mom’s campaign fundraisers and Elise begins to see there’s more to Ben than his gruff and handsome exterior. But their romance takes off as the political campaign ramps up, complicating their relationship with unforeseen consequences. Now always-the-bridesmaid Elise must fight for what she wants to finally get her own happily ever after. 

My Thoughts:

Elise has a lot going on at the moment all her friends are getting married which is good but they all want her to be involved in their weddings. It is a lot for her to take on especially as she is trying to run a business that is not doing well. When she hires someone to help her she doesn’t realise it would be Ben who is good looking but not very approachable, when Elise gets to know him more she realises there is more than meets the eye. You can never predict your future but can Elise finally get her happy after. I enjoyed the concept of this story, it is a romantic comedy that you will love. I liked the characters and there are some funny parts to this story. I think there is many Elise’s out there and Julie has done well to write sympathetically.
