Previously published as Wedding Survivor When a wedding planner's first gig teams her up with a sexy stuntman, will she crash and burn...or be airlifted to love? Behind Eli McCain's Texas drawl lies an extreme sports lover, a former Hollywood stuntman...and a broken heart. Left at the altar a year ago, he's not happy when Thrillseekers Anonymous, the extreme sports club he cofounded, gets into the celebrity wedding business. Especially since Marnie Banks, the wedding coordinator with the stunning smile and sexy curves, never stops talking. Marnie, meanwhile, hopes planning an A-list celebrity wedding will be her ticket to success. If only her glamorous clients weren't constantly throwing outrageous demands at her. And if only Eli wasn't so guarded -- and so jaw-droppingly handsome. But when the wedding turns from extreme to extremely disastrous, Eli and Marnie must work together against the elements, their bickering clients, and their own smoldering attraction to save the day. Will the sparks flying between them ignite into something real and passionate...or will they both end up burned?… (more)

Really enjoyed this one. So very hilarious moments and a completely entertaining story. ( )

I so enjoyed this book. You gotta spend an afternoon or three (there are three books in the series) with the Thrillseekers Anonymous a members-only adventure service. After I read this book I had to get the other two.

When a pair of A-list movie stars decides to combine a wedding with an extreme sport outing, ex-stuntman Eli McCain isn’t too happy. One of the Thrillseekers Anonymous founders, he was jilted at the alter a year ago—and he has no interest in hearing wedding bells. Unfortunately, hes’ been outvoted, and now there’s a crazy wedding to stage with a bridezilla from hell.

In comes wedding planner Marnie Banks to save the day—and, she hopes, make some romantic connections with Hollywood’s jet set. Only one problem stands in her way: Eli McCain, who may look like a movie star, but has no appreciation for the finer things in life. ( )

This is one of those books you almost hate to admit you read...much less that you liked it. Every bit of it was bury your face in your hands, laugh until you snort funny. I read it twice in a row and have no doubt that the next time I'm in dire need of a laugh I will be opening it again. From the book club meetings without books to the $20K wedding gown stuck in a tree the story doesn't disappoint. "Survivor" is exactly ight for this wedding. ( )

decent romance, but pretty lame modern romance about Marnie - a wedding planner and Eli who is one of a bunch of guys who is part of Thrill Seekers Anonymous ( )

Explicit!

A group of macho men have formed a company called Thrillseekers Anonymous. They take rich-and-famous clients on extreme sporting adventures. But now they've been hired to put on a wedding, ultra-secret, on top of an isolated mountain by two very spoilt movie stars. The man put in charge of this project just got jilted, and so has sworn off women. Enter a perky, spunky, romantically bent wedding planner. (They are our hero and heroine.) The happenings around the planning of the wedding seemed quite hilarious. Then a storm hits after the group has "gone up the mountain", and the groom, bride, wedding planner, and Thrillseeker guy get trapped away from civilization. The wedding devolves into an episode of Survivor, complete with contests. After they get off the mountain, the guy overcomes his fear and eventually pursues the wedding planner.

Anyway, it seemed like a good contemporary romance with a lot of humour and an interesting plot/premise. The wordplay and personality clashing was fun. I would recommend the title one-on-one if I knew the patron wouldn't mind the explicit-ness. So I thought I'd mention the author and series to y'all. All the reviews I read were good too, and she seems to always have a lot of humour.

Book description
When a pair of A-list movie stars decides to combine a wedding with an extreme sport outing, ex-stuntman Eli McCain isn’t too happy. One of Thrillseekers Anonymous’s founders, he was jilted at the altar a year ago—and has no interest in hearing wedding bells. Unfortunately, he’s been outvoted, and now there’s a crazy wedding to stage with a bridezilla from hell.

In comes wedding coordinator Marnie Banks to save the day—and, she hopes, make some romantic connections with Hollywood’s jet set. Only one problem stands in her way: Eli McCain, who may look like a movie star but clearly has no appreciation for the finer things in life.

But when a freak storm hits, Marnie and Eli are trapped on the wrong side of a ravine. Now if someone could just tell her why this handsome, rugged man is so obviously all wrong for her—because suddenly she can’t seem to survive without him…
