Sofia Barnes

I’ve always loved to play dress-up.

Creating fake weddings was my childhood pastime.

Now it is my dream come true.

I’ve finally been handed my first client.

But nothing could prepare me for who greeted me when I walked in.

He was my first kiss, my first everything, including my first and only heartbreak.

Now I have to plan his wedding.

Matthew Petrov

My family is filled with hockey royalty.

From my grandfather to my uncle to my father.

Now it is my turn to work my way up the leaderboard.

I had everything that I’ve ever wanted in my life.

Or so I thought.

Nothing could prepare me for coming face-to-face with Sofia.

I knew her inside and out.

She knew my inner secrets.

Two years ago, I let her go, and now she’s planning my wedding to someone else.

They say time heals old wounds. They lied.

Maybe she was just mine to take.

Review:

Would you survive if your first job as a wedding coordinator is to organize your ex boyfriend's wedding? Sofia finds herself in this situation, and she tries to be professional, even if after two years it's still hard to resist to Matthew Petrov.

Matthew is still immature for his age, he just gets carried away by people quite easily. Fortunately he puts a stop to the wedding preparation, because everyone can tell that that woman isn't right for him. For the first time he understands what is important for himself, and he decides to reconquer his ex girlfriend. Sofia tries to be impassive in front of Matthew courting, but even if she is still scarred for their previous break up, he is impossible to say no to.

Sofia and Matthew have a great chemistry, a good connection and some deep feelings for each other that don't let them to forget what a special relationship they had before.

Overall, very enjoyable. Even if I got angry at the main characters when they reveal their broke up story, they could have acted very differently in order to avoid so much grief and sadness, but in the end I was happy how they made things work.

I really love these big families depicted by Natasha Madison, they give some humour to the story. I'll look forward to the next book in this series because I'm so curious to see the kids of the original families all grown up.
