USA Today bestselling author Helena Greer presents a swoony, sexy romcom where a no-nonsense lawyer fakes a relationship with her barista to avoid going solo to her ex-girlfriend's wedding.
No-nonsense lawyer Tara Sloane Chadwick is perfectly fine with going to her ex’s wedding—the break-up was congenial, and Tara is nothing if not well-mannered. But after one too many reminders of her dismal dating track, Tara panics when asked if she'll need a plus-one and declares she's bringing her new girlfriend. One Tara is seriously single. Thankfully, Holly, the waitress she's been crushing on, happily offers to be her fake date . . .
Only Holly's offer isn't quite selfless—she's been lusting over Tara for ages, but Tara only dates women she can marry. And Holly has no interest in settling down with anyone or in any one place. A temporary arrangement is the perfect Holly and Tara can enjoy a no-strings fling for the wedding and part ways after. However, between sharing kisses and hotel beds and cuddling under the mistletoe, Tara begins to dream of a life with Holly in Charleston . . . just as Holly starts wishing she could travel with Tara by her side. Soon, neither can see a future without the other, but can they find a path forward where they both can thrive?

Taraaaa I love you, Hallmark Movie Ice Queen Ex-Fiancee! This was such a sweet, satisfying conclusion (?? unless) to the Carrigan's trilogy and I'm so happy for everyone. I love the way all these characters talk like a queer friends group who's had a lot of therapy, so real, so relatable. I also thought the happy-for-now ending was realistic for these two, although it might not satisfy some readers looking for a full-on HEA.)
4/5
This was so cute! I actually liked Tara and Holly, although the fight at thee nd felt forced.
I LOVED however, Levi and his cameos throughout the book. He and Hannah are my favourite. AND THEIR STORY ONLY CONTINUES I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.
I can't believe this is the end of the series. I was convinced that we'd get a book about Cole too! We need it, Helena! We need Cole's book! I know he's happy with Sawyer but we need to know everything about he golf club arson, THE PRIEST?? EXCUSE ME? His friendship with Tara and Miriam and everything, how he got back access to his trust fund, HIS JOB. Please, we need his book!
