The Wedding Date
4 Stars

After the devastating loss of her fiance, realtor Julie Marone is trying, without success, to get back into the dating scene by finding a date for her sister's wedding. But when she meets Cody Brown, a sexy Texan transplant to Boston, sparks fly. Upon learning that Cody is a physician, her deep and abiding mistrust of doctors puts a damper on their budding romance. Will Cody be able to get past her defenses?

Both Julie and Cody are appealing characters and they have excellent chemistry. Cody is a particularly charming hero in pursuit. He has sown his wild oats and is ready to settle down, but wants a woman who can see past his chosen career to the man beneath. Julie, on the other hand, is more reserved and her disdainful attitude toward Cody's profession is problematic. Nevertheless, one cannot help but feel for given the circumstances and root for her HEA.

The secondary cast comprised primarily of Julie's family is wonderful and there are some truly heartwarming moments.

Overall, a short but well-written and enjoyable introduction to the series. I look forward to continuing.… (altro)

I think this might be my favorite of the series! Dakota and Chris were awesome together. Dakota Rains has it all. Looks, fame, and money. The one thing he holds more dear than any of that is family. And the one thing he can't and won't tolerate - the press! Chris Case is a struggling journalist trying desperately to live up to her famous mothers image. Being sent to get an exclusive story on Dakota Rains and his family isn't her idea of a great assignment but what can she do. What she never expected was to snag Dakota's attention or be whisked away to his private island. After really getting to know him, she knows she can't write the story but will he believe her??

This is a fantastic read and one I highly recommend.… (altro)
