The best man ghosted me six years ago after kissing me, and now I have to plan every wedding event under the sun with him.



Nate Stiles is the definition of serious. Furrowed brow? Check. Rain cloud personality? Double check.



I shouldn’t be thinking about the fact that our kiss was the best one of my life right now. I should be planning the bachelorette party of the millennium.



I shouldn’t be wondering when Nate became such a good dancer after we got roped into salsa lessons with the happy couple. I should be mentally ticking off boxes on my bridal checklists.



I shouldn’t be wondering what it would be like if I didn’t hate Nate Stiles. I should be holding strong against a man who doesn’t believe in love.



My name is Essie Lovelock. I am a reformed love-obsessed fairytale fanatic, and I’m determined to be the best maid of honor my best friend could ever have.



And I am absolutely not going to fall for the best man.
