Synopsis:
Gavin Greene writes the wedding column for the Paper, and he has come to the realization that he may forever be a single guy attending other people's weddings. He doesn't want to be alone, but he's not quite sure what to do about it. His breakup with his last girlfriend, Laurel, was painful, and he doesn't know where things went wrong.
Gavin meets Melinda at a party, thinks she's wonderful, and realizes too late that she had been flirting with him. Having lost sight of her, he tries to find her again, fails, and then tries to forget her while interviewing brides- and grooms-to-be, dealing with family-related stress, and nervously wondering if he will be the next person at the Paper to be laid off. After making a bad decision, Gavin gets roped into covering a wedding that happens to be Melinda's wedding. His personal and professional lives collide in hugely uncomfortable ways.
Review:
I've seen this book described as a romantic comedy, but it's not. It's basically chick lit from a man's perspective. I'm more of a romance reader than a chick lit reader and, for that reason and a few others, I don't think this book was right for me.
