This cast of characters is impossible, not to love. We have Maggie, our resident wedding planner, who has taken a much needed vacation to exotic Bora Bora looking to relax and have a Fling. Wgat she is not expecting is to run into Brody, her brothers best friend and the man who broke her fragile heart.

Brody is suckered into a trip to Bora Bora to attend the wedding of his bosses daughter by filling in for a coworker. While there, he plans to win over the man to sell him his work proposal. What he doesn't see coming is Maggie, who hilariously gets them involved in a fake relationship. And involved in the wedding itself.

The antics, the inner dialog, and the love/hate that these two share is cringe worthy. I was cracking up and the situations these two find themselves in over and over again. From a failed spear fishing expedition to a snake bite and a speedo, I had a smile on my face the entire book. Every book just gets better and better.

Even though I haven’t read much by Meghan Quinn, I did know about her as she’s an Amazon darling. Her books are always on the Kindle charts and she’s incredibly popular so I feel like I had a right to be nervous.

Even so, Bridesmaid for Hire is such a fun and fast-paced read. The story follows Maggie who is on vacation and things are going great until she ends up in a scheme with her brother’s best friend, Brody. The two decide to fake-date as a way to advance their careers by befriending the Hoppers. While Maggie instantly charms everyone, Brody has a much tougher time.

Considering that it’s set on vacation, I feel like Bridesmaid for Hire is the ultimate book to bring on vacation. You have some funny moments, some sexy moments, and even, some utterly romantic moments that’ll have you swooning. While things did feel a little bit stale around the midway point, the book did pick up steam towards the end.

While the book might seem daunting, Meghan Quinn’s writing is easy to get into so you’ll be halfway through before you know it. Plus the cover is adorable and great for those traveling to a wedding. However, let’s just hope that your date doesn’t succumb to the same fates that Brody did the entire book.

All in all, Bridesmaid for Hire is a fun book with an adorable romance and plenty of spice. If you have room in your beach bag, then I say snag a copy and bask in the sun while you gobble up this romance. Plus there’s also a callback to one of Meghan Quinn’s other series so if you’re a fan, you’ll get a kick out of that.
