It’s as if someone told Mia Sosa that she couldn’t write a funnier and sexier and swoon worthy follow up to The Worst Best Man and she was like “wanna bet?” and then proceeded to DOMINATE and give us an CRUSHING sequel.

It was everything I wanted. From the first chapter I was hooked. Solange is a PRESENCE, a delightful soul who is confident and hilarious and horny and free. She had me laughing all the time in the best ways and I loved her immensely.

Dean was already a favorite since we met him as Max’s best friend and getting a chance to be inside his mind just made me love him MORE.

God I could speak for HOURS about how much I loved this book.

It was fake dating trope executed perfectly, it was sexual tension rising and burning until it burst! It was meddling families and cutthroat coworkers and a bunch of calamities bringing these two together and I loved every second of it!

*chefs kiss* I cannot wait to own this book and have it on my shelf. Solange and Dean are definitely going to be one of my favorite couples of 2022

Fell in love with Lina & Max in THE WORST BEST MAN and I couldn't wait to hear Solange's story and Sosa brought it! Contains great classic romance troupes without feeling like it is being silly; also can I just say that after reading both of the listed books above I want to eat Brazilian food all day every day?! Also, I would love to read a book about all the tias from these books....they crack me up every time they show up.

This was a wonderful follow up to The Worst Best Man. I loved Solange and Dean and the way their relationship evolved, especially because fake dating is one of my favorite tropes. Despite only knowing each other a few weeks, their feelings somehow didn't feel like insta-love which I appreciated. The supporting cast of the book is also great- Solange's family is so colorful and caring and real and the little twist with Kimberly and Nia was a big surprise that I enjoyed. This book was funny and sexy and sweet and I am going to recommend it to everyone I know.

Folks, this is floofy, fluffy romance at its finest. It's full of tropes, it's utterly ridiculous at times, and it's earnest while never taking itself too seriously. Think 90's rom com, but updated with a diverse cast and a non-problematic male lead. I mean, it has everything. There's fake dating, there's only one bed, and at one point there's a rush to the airport, all from the perspective of a Brazilian woman whose was raised by a single mother who immigrated to the United States (and, you know, the guy's POV but that's kind of less exciting.)

This book also helps cement my theory that romance novels are the perfect pandemic reading. They are escapism, but they also present small-scale real world problems that are overcome in the end. Examples from this book include job dissatisfaction, life trajectory and decision making, and horrible co-workers. It feels good, to have issues presented that the protagonists persevere through, that may just be applicable to your own life. With, you know, some really great sex on the side.

I'm such a fan of The Worst Best Man, so safe to say I've been anticipating this one for awhile! The Wedding Crasher was over the top in the best way and nothing short of a wild ride

At the very start of the story, Solange overhears something she shouldn't that leads her to publicly object to a wedding between two people she doesn't know. Early on, you get a sense of her moral compass and what her ideas of love are, which drives her to speak up despite not knowing the couple personally. One half of the couple happens to be Dean, who has willingly entered this engagement of convenience to support his own ambitions. He's convinced himself that love and emotion only lead relationships to fail. What he wants is the commitment and stability apart from love.

I found Solange and Dean's opposing viewpoints of love to be such a fascinating contrast between them. Despite their differences, they get along incredibly well and communicate their desires beautifully. Their chemistry was off the charts, and I loved seeing the way each got under the other's skin until they were too far gone to go back. And everything I love about the fake dating trope - the subtle touches, the teaming up to get their stories straight, when the whole situation messes with their heads to the point where they can so easily imagine a real relationship - was so well done in here.

Overall, this was such a fantastic follow-up to The Worst Best Man! Mia Sosa is definitely an author to watch out for!

I was so excited to read this book after reading the first one in the series The Worst Best Man. I've always been fascinated by the idea of someone saying I object during a wedding.

I loved our main character Solange. She's a determined woman and doesn't get intimidated by anyone. Especially the asshole in this book named Peter. Mia Sosa did a great job of writing Peter, I'm sure everyone who reads this book will hate him and love Dean. Dean is a gentile soul and wants his life to be planned out but when he meets Solange at his wedding as she yells objections his world turns upside down.

With Fake Dating and one bed troupe this book is a fast read. I loved the romance and felt like it seemed accurate to the time. Dean was never in love with his ex fiancee so there was nothing to really get over with. The spicy scenes were great! There were only a few but they were good. Dean is definitely not boring where it counts.

One thing I love about Mia Sosa's books that I read so far is the family aspect. Solange is part of a very tight family. I enjoy seeing the love, respect and protectiveness they have over each other. The only issue I had with this book is that since it was so long since I read book one, I had forgotten all of the family and had to try remembering who is who. We also get more of the couple we followed in book one Max and Lina. Who are friends or family of Solange and Dean's. We really got to see how their family up bringing has shaped their view on love and dreams.

I recommend you read book one before reading this book as things will be spoiled for you if you are wanting to read Max and Lina's story. Also it will help you tremendously with figuring out who is who in this family.

I found Mia Sosa's The Worst Best Man to be extremely funny, so I was really looking forward to the follow up. While The Wedding Crasher wasn't quite as funny (to me), it was still an enjoyable read and I love the fake dating trope. Solange crashes (and then causes the cancellation of..) Dean's wedding, which she's at because her cousin is the wedding planner. He's ok because it was more a marriage of convenience than anything, but he needs a new girlfriend to impress the partners at his law firm, so he asks Solange to step in. I really liked Solange and her family, as well as her relationship with Dean. Some of Dean's work stuff involving the partners and a scheming rival was a bit stressful, but I liked both his and Solange's arcs. Sosa's books are always super charming, and this one is no exception.

The blurb promised a fake dating story which was one of my favorite tropes of romance and the reason for requesting it. I found it very hard to connect with MCs Dean and Solange. The chemistry between them feels forced and didn’t appear natural at all.

Solange works in the wedding organizers team and crashes Dean’s wedding after overhearing a conversation between the bride and her lover. Two weeks later, Dean approaches Solange as his fake date to impress the potential hire Kimberly and her partner who might bring a lot of high-end clients to his law firm which in turn paves way for him to become a partner.

Kimberly who in a long-term relationship laps up the Dean’s relationship with Solange which began within two weeks after his failed wedding. I found this hard to believe. He also sells the idea that Solange has been vocal to Dean about he and his fiancée weren’t perfect to each other. I was oh how she knew what’s going on in their relationship, how she knew what's best for them. Dean goes ahead with the wedding despite knowing they aren’t perfect just to move ahead in his career. All these aspects made me dislike this pair and couldn’t connect to these characters.

Dean immediately gets attracted to everything Solange does. This was another turn off for me as I was expecting the witty banter, funny fights between fake dating couples. One more thing is all the Latin conversations between Solange and her mom/aunts annoyed me as I couldn’t get what they were talking about.

Another cringe worthy scene involves an adult club which doesn’t add anything to the story but is totally unnecessary.

I love spicy with a plot! This book is mild spice, probably spice level 2 or 3 - but it really delivered for me. The Worst Best Man was a 5 star read for me and one of my 2020 top 5 favorite books. It plucked me out of a reading rut in the best way. I was so thankful to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read The Wedding Crasher and Mia Sosa did not disappoint. Excited for what's next.

I was nervous this wouldn’t live up to her first book but omg SO SO GOOD! I loved it and I can’t brag about it enough please don’t hesitate in picking this one up!

The Wedding Crasher is the follow up to The Worst Best Man. We’ve met Alex’s best friend Dean before but Lina’s cousin Solange was a new character. After crashing and ruining Dean’s wedding, Solange agrees to be his fake girlfriend to help bring in a new client and make partner at his law firm.

This book had all my favorite rom com elements:
- Fake dating
- One bed
- Good banter
- Spice
- Chaotic family members
- Dual POV

A fun and lighthearted book to spend an afternoon reading.

Thank you to Avon and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

OMG!! And I thought that nothing could get better than “The Worst Best Man”?? Somehow, it freaking did! I was swooning the entire book. Dean and Solange are everything. Sosa brings in the BEST witty banter in this book. I love how Dean is a good mix between an absolute sweetheart, jokester, while also being a sexy workaholic. All I’m gonna say is that the fashion show scene had me DYING of laughter. They’re so much swoony goodness between the two. I love the development of the side characters as well. Reading this book felt like getting a hug from your grandmother. I would do anything to get a hug from all of Solange’s tias. A solid romantic comedy to give you all the feels and feel all fuzzy inside. I don’t have any complaints about this book because it was SO GOOD!! A fantastic read to kick off the new year. Sosa does it again! 4.5/5 ⭐️‘s and there’s definitely some sweet spicy goodness 🌶🌶🌶

Solange gets roped into helping her cousins during a wedding and winds up crashing the wedding - literally. Dean and Ella are marrying for convenience, not love - in fact, Ella is in love with someone else! So Solange interrupting his vows doesn’t really bother Dean - except that it throws a wrench in his carefully laid life plans. When Dean needs a fake girlfriend for a few weeks for work, he thinks of Solange - she does owe him one, right? What’s a few weeks of pretending to date an incredibly attractive man with whom you have sizzling chemistry with, right?

I loved the characters of Solange and Dean. Mia Sosa has a gift for having her characters jump off of the pages - I really felt their chemistry and the tension between them! I also loved seeing Lina and Max return!

Thanks to the author/publisher and NetGalley for the ARC!

If you think this is just another cute romcom, think again. Giving life to the fake dating trope, Solange and Dean will have you cackling as you follow all of their shenanigans—Including getting propositioned by a swinger couple on their first outing.

Mis Sosa goes, you think you know what’s coming, hold my champagne and watch this… this isn’t JUST a party at a club. That’s right besties, it’s a ‘special’ kind of club.

If you like to laugh, enjoy a good fake dating story, and wedding that doesn’t end in marriage (oops), then give this a try!

4/5 ⭐️ | 3.5-4/5 🌶 | 18+

A social thank you to Avon for my gifted copy.

I'm normally not a fan of wedding crasher stories but for some reason this one had me laughing pretty much from the first page till the end.

thank you to the publisher, l, and the author for letting me read an ARC of this amazing
story through NetGalley.
So this book trope is fake dating which is one of my favorite tropes
It starts with Solange who learns sth about the wedding and decides to crash it later on dean wants to go through a job promotion so he asks her to be his fake girlfriend since she is the one who ruined the wedding .I felt that the chemistry between max and Caroline was much stronger than dean and Solange but these two were cute too. Mia Sosa writing style is so lovely there were so many funny moments in this book that I enjoyed it a lot. The best part were the character development it was so relatable.overall it is going to be one the sweet rom coms of 2022.
My rating :4/5 stars

This was a fun and compelling story that was a fresh take on the fake dating trope. I really enjoyed the whole cast of main characters and delighted in disliking the villains. There was one scene that seemed out of place in the book, to me, but otherwise was very enjoyable!

This is a fake dating romance featuring Dean, a lawyer who has his whole life planned, including a strategic marriage of convenience, and Solange, an educator/social worker who crashes Dean’s wedding to keep him and his intended from marrying for all the wrong reasons. When Dean realizes that having a girlfriend would make him more competitive at a shot of becoming partner, he asks Solange to enter into a fake relationship, which she’s on board with since she’s in need of a fake boyfriend as well thanks to her mother’s lie to save face with her annoying cousin. Talk about a relationship of convenience!

Thus ensues a steamy romance with all of the predictable tropes, including having to share a bed, finding their chemistry is off the charts when they have to act like they’re in love by sharing public displays of affection, and more. Of course, they’ve both made it clear from the start that they’re not interested in love and commitment, and it’s baggage from being raised by single moms at the root. Although there’s nothing particularly unique or memorable in this version of the fake dating trope, Solange’s family dynamics, especially between her Brazilian mother and two aunts, make for an amusing journey. It’s also fun to catch up with Max and Lina from The Worst Best Man. (Solange and Lina are cousins and more like sisters.)

If you’re looking for a fun, easy read that’s light on the angst and ripe with sexual tension, pick this one up.

I received a complimentary ARC of this book from Avon through NetGalley in
exchange for an honest review. Opinions expressed are completely my own.

This was a cute read. I enjoyed this more than her first novel and felt it was definitely steamier. My two negatives would be 1. It felt very long for what it was and 2. The ending “wedding” was a bit too cheesy for my liking. The epilogue was a nice ending, though. I’ll definitely check out Sosa’s next novel.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

What would you do if you knew a wedding was doomed from the start? After overhearing the bride confessing her love for another person the morning before the wedding, Solange is faced with that exact choice. She doesn't know the bride and groom and frankly their relationship is none of her business, but can she really break up a wedding? Yes. And that's just the beginning.

The Wedding Crasher is an adorable book filled with fake dating tropes which happen to be one of my favorites.

5/5 Stars!

Thank you to Netgalley and Avon and Harper Voyager, Avon for providing me with an e-arc of this book in exchange for an honest review.
