What's a dedicated bachelor doing at a week-long society wedding celebration? Doug Llewellyn is being bored out of his skull...until a beautiful, unknown woman calls him "darling," then plants a big wet kiss on him. Suddenly boredom is no longer Doug's problem. Rosie Kilgannon, she of the big wet kiss, is also a guest at the wedding, and although she's used Doug as a way to escape an amorous admirer, that kiss was really something else! Why not enjoy each other for the week, no strings attached? Which might have worked, if not for the weeping bride, the suspiciously shifty groom, the neurotic wedding planner...and the fact that True Love often sneaks up on the unwary and belts them right in the chops!… (more)

Wacky storyline had some appeal. Too breezy, easy, always in sync since first met type of romance with main characters -- but I do know that is what lots of author's fans like about her books. Reminded me of the regencies where cast of characters off to house party in English countryside despite contemporary setting. Lotta nonstop humor. ( )

Dreading the week long wedding event, Doug Llewellyn made his escape plans with his partner Cam. After having a women walk up to him an kiss him, he was intrigued. As the kisser, Rosie Kilgannon was just trying to ditch the person she had been ‘set up with‘, but now that she had a taste of Doug she was hooked. The confirmed bachelor who never stuck his nose anywhere that it didn’t belong, suddenly found himself in the middle one wedding disaster after another and it could all be traced back to Rosie’s new influence over him. Even the scheduled escape route had bad timing, as did the squirrel population.

Cute, fun and fast paced. Doug never knew what Rosie would say or do next, what a fun break from the normal wedding. Going over the top with the complications, the planner was frantic, the hostess was neurotic, most of the guests were lost while Doug and Rosie were putting obvious assumptions to the test. I really liked both of these characters, he’s making some changes (whether he is ready to or not) and she is the average (wacky but self assured) women. So much happened in such a short time, the wedding celebration took the whole week and the whole week was full of flirting and fun for the main characters. ( )

Sort of from the jacket except that I actually read the book: Doug Llewellyn is a dedicated bachelor attending his second cousin's week-long society wedding celebration. He expects to be bored out of his skull by whichever of the bride's mother's unmarried friends she sics on him...until a beautiful, unknown woman calls him 'darling,' then plants a big wet kiss on him. Suddenly boredom is no longer Doug's problem.

Rosie Kilgannon, she of the big wet kiss, is also a guest at the wedding, and although she's used Doug as a way to escape an amorous admirer (sicced on her by the bride's matchmaking mother), that kiss was really something else! Doug and Rosie agree to enjoy each other for the week, no strings attached.

Which might have worked, if not for the weeping bride, the suspiciously shifty groom, the neurotic wedding planner, the bride's parents, the groom's 'friends,' the squirrels, the hurricane, and the eccentric who loves the bride. Doug and Rosie team up to set things right.

I really enjoyed this upbeat book. I liked the turns it takes and laughed out loud at some of the situations. (My only criticism would be that I would have liked to know a little more about Rosie to give her more dimension for me.) Best of all: the ending is all I hope for in a book, happy, everything explained, no loose ends. ( )
