Finding happily ever after isn't so simple...

Libby Blake is sweet, smart, and super-model gorgeous, so why doesn't she stand up for herself? When an unwanted, high-pressure proposal catches her off guard, she feels trapped. Who says no to a millionaire, after all?

Reg Rafferty's small catering business is just getting off the ground when he's asked to plan a wedding reception for a millionaire. The assignment could rocket his company into the big league. There's just one problem. He can tell the bride doesn't want to go through with it, and the more he gets to know her, the more he hopes she doesn't.

Full of humor and tenderness, this novella celebrates letting go of past fears and seizing a brighter future.

Reg is just a normal guy who runs a small party/ catering business. So when he gets booked for a 3000 person wedding, he is in a little over his head.
Libby is just a simple girl who owns a high end art gallery. She needs to get the rich clientele in the door to make money, so she starts dating a really rich guy. Then this guy proposes and she is unable to say no.
When she shows up at Reg’s store to plan her wedding, she is unable to tell anyone that she does not want the wedding to go forward.
As she gets to know Reg, she starts opening up. She tells him that she does not want to get married to her fiance.
She knows she needs to cancel the wedding, but will she do it before it is too late.
I wanted to laugh. I wanted to cry. I wanted to date Reg myself.
This book is another wonderful book in the series. I hope you enjoy it too!

Silence=agreement

Libby is mortified to find herself presumed engaged by the public at large...including the bulk of those who watch the proposal later on youtube, etc.
The one good thing about the debacle is Reg Rafferty, the man tapped by her fiance to cater/decorate.
The other good thing is that she finds herself forced to face her inability to say "no."

A uniquely charming tale.
