Publisher Description
Violet Caliendo escorts couples into the illusion of "happily ever after" as wedding coordinator at Willow Valley's five-star Caliendo Resort. But Violet doesn't believe in love or "happily ever after" anymore. She's guarded herself from love so deeply since her divorce that some even call her the "Ice Queen." When she has to plan her ex-husband's wedding, even her Ice Queen persona takes a hit.
With her emotions in high gear, she takes out her frustrations by having sex with her ex's best man, Ryder Carlex. Ryder is a playboy type and Violet figures it's a simple one-time fling. But Ryder actually is attracted to Violet in a way he's never known before. Neither of them ever imagines that the sparks between them will ignite a fire hotter than anything they've ever encountered – slowly breaking down both their walls.
Will Violet be able to let go of her past and embrace a possible future with Ryder? Will Ryder let Violet into his own deep, dark secrets? Or will their trust issues forever doom them both from achieving their own "happily ever after"?

3.5 out of 5
This book started off slow with a number of glaring grammatical errors which you could normally work through (hello… free reading) but the volume of errors really took you out of the story. With that being said, it really picked up and I would have given it a 4/5 stars without it. It was a convoluted story with a lot of unexpected twists and turns that kept you guessing, so much so that it verged on soap opera-like; nevertheless, that is the nature of the premise for the story where there was blackmail, adultery and dysfunction. Together, however, they made it work and love won out creating a HEA… even for the ex-husband.
Sunset Thunder
Good book. I am one of those people who didn’t like Joel and I think he should have been kept as the jerk. I don’t like that the author wrote two endings and reading the alternative won’t change what I already read.
Why would you write two endings anyway?
Can’t even finish it
This author is too verbose and the story is way too much.
