Publisher Description
Lucas Wilder’s best friend is a traitor. First, Audrey moved back to their hick-infested hometown, Bluewater Bay, and now she’s marrying a local. His own brother, in fact. And as her man of honor, Lucas gets coerced into returning for an extended stay. Although, between his unfaithful ex-boyfriend and his artist’s block, going home isn’t the worst thing that could happen. Even if the best man is Gabriel Savage, Lucas’s first crush, first hookup, and first heartbreak.
The only reason Gabe hasn’t been waiting for Lucas to return to Bluewater Bay is because he never thought it’d happen. Not that it matters now that Lucas is back—Gabe’s still a logger who’s never been anywhere (Canada doesn’t count), and Lucas is now a famous sculptor who’s been everywhere twice. Plus, there’s that shared past.
When Audrey asks Lucas to make her wedding favors, the only place to set up a kiln is at Gabe’s tree farm. Soon, they pick up where they left off twelve years before, then blow past it, discovering why neither of them forgot the other. Now they have to choose how much of their history they’ll repeat, and what future they’ll make together.

Customer Reviews
Wedding Favors
Well I got my wish. The last book I read and reviewed was Lights! Camera! Cupid!, chronologically the book before this one; Wedding Favours. I wished that each story could have been a full length novel. In Lights! Camera! Cupid!, Anne Tenino’s contribution is about Lucas and Gabriel, both very young men. Twelve years later their story continues. Lucas returns to Bluewater Bay and of course comes into contact with Gabriel, or Gabe.
I loved reading their story, the simmering attraction between them that is apparent in the prequal. Anne Tenino gives life to her characters, especially her two main ones. I really felt the growing love between Lucas and Gabe, and the description of how Lucas feels whilst watching Gabe work the horse Blackie for the first time and how Lucas loses himself in his sculpting just drew me in. Just two of many other beautiful moments. When these two men love each other it is a beautiful thing. They are perfectly made for each other.
Is it selfish of me to really, really want to read more of Lucas and Gabe? Please?
And to finish, although the books in the Bluewater Bay series are standalone stories, they really make more sense when read in order. Enjoy.
