It Takes Two

b.andherbooks

After surviving friend Elise's wedding, including watching her best friend Jane get her heart broken AND mended in a surprising 24-hour turn of events including a Hercules costume, Wendy isn't sure she's ready to be the maid of honor for Jane's wedding.

But, she'll be damned if she won't be the BEST maid of honor ever for the "low-key" but really not actually "low-key" wedding Jane is intent on having. The worst part about Jane's wedding is that it will definitely include Noah, Jane's brother, the man who stood Wendy up at prom and placed her firmly in the anti-relationship camp, the man she's been actively avoiding for over fifteen years.

Noah, unaware of Wendy's hurt, is delighted his little sister is getting married. He's also determined Jane will have the best wedding ever. He's also never forgotten the spark he's always felt for his longtime friend, especially when they compete.

When these two high powered attorney's go to battle over who will make Jane's wedding the best, it will bring the past and the present together, with both Wendy and Noah having to come to terms with their hangups over relationships.

Not quite as delightful for me as the first book, but still loved Wendy and Noah's story. Can't wait for Gia's!

I'm loving Jenny Holiday's Bridesmaids Behaving Badly series so very much! It's fun, swoony and sexy and Wendy and Noah gave me all the feels in the latest installment, It Takes Two.

I'll never not love the best friend's big brother trope, especially when it's done as well as it was with Wendy and Noah. I loved these two characters so much. Their history was rather complicated, so it was a bit enemies to lovers with a hint of a second chance romance. Noah was such a sweet, protective and caring guy. It was so easy to crush on him. Wendy was a little prickly at times, but she was also a good friend to those she loved. She'd suffered a lot of loss in her life and her walls were definitely up high and tight. But, Noah always did seem to find a way through them. He always had, for better or worse. 

Wendy and Noah's story was sweet and a little sexy and I just couldn't get enough of them. There was a bit of a slow burn as these two came to terms with their feelings, but it felt right and natural. Things definitely heated up, too. Their "what happens in New York stays in New York" fling was SUPER hot, but it was also obvious there were some very real feelings underneath it all. I was happy to see the more casual agreement move into a deeper connection. Wendy and Noah were so perfectly suited, I can't imagine them NOT together. 

The other fun part about It Takes Two was the secondary characters. First off, we get to see Cam and Jane, of One and Only fame, in the lead up to their special day. And, well, the special day itself. We also get a chance to learn even more about Gia, the last woman standing, which just made me want her book even more. Three Little Words just can't get here soon enough. I'll be waiting with total grabby hands until I get it.

I received a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

FAVORITE QUOTES

There was no universe in which Noah Denning was going to be the "milk" Wendy Lou Who got for free.

This was why he avoided casual sex. It so often came with all these confusing emotions. You didn't know where you stood. You had no control over how things were going to go. 

"You're Jane's person. Jane's my person. Therefore, you're stuck with me. Simple logic."

Jesus Christ. He almost felt like bursting into song. Was this what being in love was like—being in a musical?

This was such a sweet read!! I adore the best friend’s brother trope. This also had a bit of a second chance romance and enemies to lovers. I definitely recommend this book if you love rom-coms and wedding romances!!
