From
bestselling author Lily Morton, comes a romantic comedy about love, matrimony,
and the best of second chances.
Joe Bagshaw doesn’t believe in love or marriage anymore, which is rather a hindrance
for a wedding planner.
His own marriage was a whirlwind affair that ended before the ink could dry on
the wedding certificate. Nevertheless, even with his divorce pending, he’s
getting by. Or at least he was until he finds himself snowed in at a remote
Scottish hotel with the wedding party from hell, a terrible ABBA tribute band,
and his soon-to-be ex-husband.
Lachlan has missed Joe from the second his husband walked away. He wants Joe
back and is prepared to do anything to get him. Being snowed in together seems
to offer the chance Lachlan needs, but does he have what it takes to get Joe to
trust in love and their marriage again?
This is the first book in the Confetti Hitched series.

“I’m so sorry, Joe.”
“Don’t worry about it,” I croak. “This happens to me a lot.”
I’m crammed into a tiny bathroom cubicle, holding up one end of a massive meringue wedding dress. Lena the bridesmaid holds the other end while the bride sits on the loo.
Daisy stares at me from her porcelain perch. “This happens a lot?”
“Oh, almost every day,” I say airily. “I’d bet most gay men have never had this experience. I’ll be the envy of the gay choir.”
She snorts and Lena shifts in her cramped position in the bathroom stall. “Joe’s a wedding planner, so I’m presuming this is part of his job description, but I really do think the bridesmaid’s charter needs updating. I saw mention of hen nights, crappy dresses, and bridal blues, but absolutely zip about holding a wedding dress while the happy woman pees.”
Daisy chuckles. “This will be just like all those times I’ve held your hair back when you were drunk.”
“I’m just coming at it from the opposite end.”
They grin at each other, and I shift from foot to foot.
“It’s very warm in here,” I observe. “I hope I don’t faint, because that would make this whole thing very awkward.”
“It can get more awkward?” Lena says incredulously.
Daisy sighs. “I’m so sorry but I can’t go now.”
“Performance anxiety,” Lena says. “I do hope your bridegroom doesn’t suffer from the same thing.”
I twist to face the wall as best I can, trying to avoid leaving the skin of my nose on the door hinges. “I’ll try to give you some privacy,” I wheeze.

This is the first book in the series, although fans may recognise Joe from an
earlier book.
I enjoyed the story overall, and read it through in one sitting. It has some
funny bits, some huge wedding clichés, and two men who really never knew how to
communicate with each other – especially about the things which matter.
Sometimes this can be endearing, sometimes infuriating, but when they are both
as bad as each other... it can be wearing. For two good guys, they definitely
took it to extremes, avoiding getting too close in case they revealed how they
felt. The Scottish castle in the snow was definitely romantic, even if a little
crazy!
Overall, a quick read with some fun elements and a good reminder to be a little
less closed off!

I was excited to read this book, the blurb caught my attention and I've liked
other books by this author. This one fell short for me. I put this book down
several times because I couldn't get into it, and I wasn't becoming invested in
the characters. There was sooo much going on and so many other characters that
really weren't relevant to Joe and Lachlan’s story. I wanted to like this book,
but it wasn't working for me. It had potential but fell short. I wanted to feel
Joe and Lachlan’s story, relate to it, but I just couldn't. Joe was so sweet,
but I thought Lachlan came off as a jerk. I'm sure others will love this, but
it was a miss for me.
