I have never been the type of girl to fantasize about a dream wedding, but I absolutely loved every aspect of Anabel and Luke’s wedding. The part when Jack walks her down the aisle had me laughing so hard, tears were streaming down my cheeks. The relationship between those two is so realistic and I will never grow tired of their interactions. Luke’s vows were the best I have ever read in a book and I was cursing the universe for not having the powers to swap places with Anabel. What I would give to find a man like that! Especially during that steamy scene. Holy Toledo, I am fanning my face right now just thinking about Luke’s hot self. These two couldn’t be more perfect for each other.
I love how Anabel discovers the big secret and I can’t wait to see where Tracy takes things from here. I also am dying for Tre J’s story. I need to know what is going on with her—especially after what she said about the BDSM club. Hah! Hilarious as always, this is a must read if you care anything about these characters!

When you read this, make sure you do it somewhere that you won't get in trouble for howling with laughter. It's witty, it's funny, it's sexy, and it's altogether irreverent. This is the wedding that only Anabel and Luke could have. And in typical Axelrod-Drake fashion, it can't happen without a little bit of chaos, a smidgen of disorder, a touch of panic, and a good-sized serving of secrets just to spice it up. Luke is probably the most romantic alpha hero I've ever read, and there's no easy way to sum up Anabel. Her unique perspective on the world is what makes this series so special. I laughed until I cried and I can't wait to do it again with the next book. 'Cause with the twist in the end of this one, there's no way we're done with Anabel's adventures just yet.
I received a complimentary copy of this book.

I'm not sure how I missed the arrival of this gem, but it wasn't until I began reading Honeymoon & Happenstance that I realized I was missing a chunk of time. I immediately rectified that by purchasing this one.
To be honest, I was a bit worried I'd feel “cheated" by a novella, but this was actually the perfect length for this part of the story - and definitely something I needed to read to understand what comes next. I've always considered Luke one of my very favorite book boyfriends, but this wedding just pushed him way over the top. His wedding vows made me want to weep! Were I younger, I believe I'd have responded just the way Anabel did. (Sadly, I don’t think my aging body would allow me to do the same.)
Naturally, this book ended on a note of uncertainty, with a big revelation at the end. Luckily, the next book is already available, so I will be reading that straightaway.

I always get a kick outta the books in the series..make me laugh so hard! Annabel and luke make one hellova couple dodging bullets and such. in this story we start at the end of the last book with Annabel fighting with bad guys and in a wedding dress no less. this book is the wedding...without all the drama...well mostly. we see Annabel stepping into yet another wedding dress and her bff calling her an unbride bc she had nothing to do with planning her wedding....that was on luke!! great romance with a touch of humor, sass, craziness and love!! great read! rcvd an advanced reader copy from the author for giving my two cents!

All caught up!
I am now caught up on the Axelrod family and can't wait to read volume 8! This novella was perfect! I swooned while reading about the wedding! It was perfect for Anabel! I suspect the honey is going to be AWESOME!
There's one sad part; I have to wait until January for the next Anabel adventure! And I can't hold wait to hear Tre J's story in the next ninja mission adventure!
I have another story idea for you, Tracy. What about Candy's backstory? Anabel's family is everything to her. So why does Candy hate her so much? Why is Nanabel so protective of her. I get that jealousy is involved, but what initially caused it?
Looking forward to reading more!

Anabel and Luke have been through a lot in this short term relationship and boy was this wedding no different than the start of their relationship. I just loved how Luke did all the prep work in the last book, to find all the glorious things he did to the wedding, and all Anabel had to do was getting ready for the big day, can't beat that right? Wrong, because low and behold Anabel manages, yet another mishap and Luke has to get her out of it...I just love this series. Thank you Tracy Ellen for keeping readers like me coming back for more of Anabel and Luke.

Mind blown!!!
This is the best novella I've ever read! If you are reading the Adventures of Anabel Axelrod, you most definitely NEED to read this. It picks up right where the seventh book leaves off and holy Hannah you will NOT believe what Anabel finds out about Luke!!!! It was a bit surprising and took me a few minutes to pick my jaw up off the floor after finding out one of his deep, dark secrets. Add the fact that Kyle Koch is still in the loose and you have the perfect recipe for a novella you won't want to put down. I'm on pins and needles for book 8 to come out!

These two are such a romantic pair.......not. Well he is but she isn't in to planning weddings even her own. But since he knows her so well he can plan the perfect wedding for them.
Enjoyed reading this novella in the series of "Adventures of Anabel Axelrod " very much. Luke Drake has agreed to plan the perfect wedding and did he come through--- you betcha! He has thought of, almost, everything. But you just never know what's going to happen when Luke and Anabel are together. New adventures here they come!

Received an ARC for my fair review from author. Well we finally have the wedding, and it was sweet, I wished I was there after reading the description of the barn. It was fun to catch up on all the character who played a part in the series. Little Lucy was funny as always. I loved Anabelle and Luke, and will enjoy keeping up with them, in Jaz's series, because we can not forget them. The only thing I wished was getting rid of the crazy cousin for good. However, does not detract from story.. Enjoy!!

Quick, Laughable, Romance story. A wedding written in the stars is a great story. I suggest reading the previous books of The Adventure of Anabel. I was lost especially with all the characters. Although I have only read All Jazzed up, I enjoyed reading Anabel and Luke wedding story. I enjoyed the characters and will definitely be reading the previous books.

Loved this little piece of crazy fun!
If you're reading this you've probably already fell in love with the shenanigans that is Anabel and the rest of the gang. I love this series and am glad to know it will continue. Who doesn't want a Luke Drake of their own? I'm jealous of Anabel minus all of the stabbing, shooting, drugging and kidnappings. Haha. If toy haven't read any Anabel Axelrod... Shame on you. Get started!

This one is a quick afternoon read. It is completely centered around the wedding of Luke and Anabel. May I add that their wedding is absolutely perfect for them. It has everything you'd expect from Luke and Anabel; hilarity, snark, unreal situations, sweetness, and steam. There are plenty of surprises, too! But you wouldn't expect anything less from these two.
May 8, 2017
It finally happened!! Love that the wedding happened in typical Anabel and Luke fashion. This novella was absolutely steamy and you can not help but fall a little more in love with Luke. I love how the ending eludes to the next chapter in their lives and can not wait for the next book!

I LOVED this story. Anabel and Luke always bring the drama, action suspense and heat. This isn't your typical wedding novella. It is is how Anabel and Luke handle their business. Very entertaining.

Once again Tracy Ellen has wrote another perfect continuation of Anabel Axelrods story. This novella is the perfect wedding for these two amazing characters I fell in love with 7 books ago! Can't wait until the next book!

Romantic. Touching. Sweet in their unique way. I wouldn’t have been able to cede control of my entire wedding the way Annabelle did, but it suited her perfectly. I really enjoyed this story.

A wedding to remember, with twist turns and of course lots of sexual tension. It's fun to see the ninja and the sex kitten collide!

Wonderful series
A great little epilogue to the Adventures of Anabel Axelrod. One sexy H and a witty h with a great cast of characters.

After a week or so of reading these in sequence I am growing weary of the same plot device not to mention the sex and language.

The wedding I had anticipated
This short novella has left me with more questions than answers as we are sent to Luke and Anabels wedding of the century. I can not wait to continue the journey with my favorite couple.
