Fiona Miller the color pink, reading books, romance, tacos, her family, and her job as a wedding planner for Bedford Bridal. When Fiona unexpectedly finds herself involved in the highly anticipated wedding between Nick Blaine and Jenna Morgan, it seems like a dream come true...that is, until she meets the wedding party. One of the groomsmen has a chip on his shoulder bigger than a five layer wedding cake, and seems determined to be difficult with everything wedding-related. Little does he know that Fiona Miller never backs down from a challenge.
Ten years ago, Will Blaine left his hometown and cut ties with his older brother, Nick. When Nick contacts Will to be a groomsman at his upcoming wedding, Will makes it clear he doesn't want to play any part in it; and he certainly doesn't want to have anything to do with a pink-clad, chatterbox of a wedding planner who smiles too much and seems too happy. As plans for the wedding progress, Will starts to find the gruff exterior he’s always used to keep people away from him doesn’t work on bossy and persistent wedding planners named Fiona.
When Fiona and Will meet, they are irresistibly drawn to one another. Will the beauty tame the bad boy and live happily ever after? Or will the past prove too much and drive them apart?
A life-long love of reading coupled with pandemic lockdown is what initially prompted Ella to finally take all the stories floating around in her head and put them together on paper.
Ella writes the kinds of romance stories she likes to read with sexy, funny, nice guys and strong, smart, sassy women... tossing in a healthy dose of awkwardness, a whole lot of drama, a sprinkle of comedy, a ride on the emotional roller coaster and a little bit of sparkle for everyone.
As a firm believer in true love, Ella's romance stories usually result in a "happily ever after." Whatever the ending, a fun ride is guaranteed!
Ella is living out her own happily ever after with her Prince Charming. After seventeen years together he still gives her butterflies and makes her heart race. They live together with their children and a small heard of rescue dogs.
Thank you Ella Sparkle for an ARC to this book! ⭐️4.75/5 🌶: NO SMUT only reference to their Intimate moments ✨Part of a series but can be read as a Stand alone ✨Dual POV ✨GrumpyxSunshine ✨Nerdy MMC & FMC
“Awfully bossy” “You like it”
My opinion: he's grumpy, bitter, angry at the world, plus an introvert, & only nice to her, sexy nerdy author she's a spitfire, never stops taking, LOVES pink, confident, isn't scared to stand her ground & is an outgoing wedding planner Total Opposites but totally perfect for each other. “…my heart melted even more for my girl. My absolutely beautiful, badass, Wonder Woman who understood me in a way no one ever had before.” After finding himself in some trouble ten years ago & serving some time Will leaves his old life behind and starts again alone, he’s become an introvert, bitter and angry at the world & especially his brother Nick. But when he is called and asked to be a part of his brothers wedding & after some convincing he agrees. He meets the most annoying, pink loving, spitfire, chatter box woman who smiles too much & so happens to be planning that wedding. She gets under his skin and embeds herself pretty deep that he can’t help but fall in love. this book was everything and more. I was hooked since the beginning. funny, cute, and sometimes awkward but definitely swoon worthy. I blindly joined the Will Blaine Fan Club It went fairly quickly 56 chapters in total, but so worth it. It’s very easy to read. I didn’t stray like I usually do & didn’t find myself having trouble staying hooked. I found myself wanting to keep reading as see what was next.
Alice has become my favorite supporting character of all time, she keeps Will on his toes & I love her personality she’s super fun supporting character & whenever she spoke she had me LOL. This is my first Ella Sparkle book and now I plan on going back to read the others.
Only reason it wasn’t a 5 star was because some of the chapters were a bit too repetitive for me, I liked reading both their versions of what happened but it just made it too long, other than that, 4.75⭐️
"My heart beats for you and only you Fiona. I love you so damn much. You're my everything. Nothing fucking matter without you here, making my heart race". _______________________________________
"I love you Fiona Miller and I can't wait to be with you... For the rest of our lives. You and me... Together".
"Say It Again".
"You and me... Together forever".

Say it Again is book 4 in the Stormy Love series by Ella Sparkle and quite possibly my favorite!
Holy Sh*t is Will grumpy. He's gruff, guarded, gives off that bad boy vibe but sexy as hell. And Fiona is just the complete opposite! She's sunshine and happiness. Her favorite color is pink and I believe Will calls her a chatterbox!
Will hasn't had things easy. He was a troubled kid who did his time, then got out & as far away as he could from everything that reminded him of that time. He closed himself away. Literally. But also became a best selling author so there's that.
Fiona is a new-ish wedding planner. Bright and sunny tasked with selling her coworkers wedding plan. However after meeting the bride she realizes it's all wrong and sells her own and gets the job.
Cue their meet. Will is the younger brother of the groom. Fiona is the wedding planner. Will wants absolutely nothing to do with his brother or his wedding. (He's harboring some serious grudges over the past!) Fiona's job depends on this wedding be a success. It's a big name event and her boss is kind of a jerk.
They're oil meets water. Opposites. But through wedding events they have these small intense interactions. Will is intrigued by Fiona and she feels this pull. Like there is something else under the surface of his asshole exterior. They develop this understanding and connection that's starts off slow but grows deeper as time goes on. They have such a beautiful relationship and bring out the best in each other. The growth in Will because of Fiona is absolutely amazing.
However they come to a huge hiccup where will isnt honest about his writing, and a surprise visit cause cheating assumptions and a fall out. It takes a book dedication, and advance copy of Book 8, a cliffhanger that mirrors real life, some groveling and and over protective brother to help Fiona see things a little clearer. They get their relationship back on track. And HEA.
⭐⭐⭐⭐¾/5 ... because it felt a little rushed at the end. But regardless other than that, I absolutely loved not only this book but this entire series so far and can't wait to see what's next!
This is a sweet young adult romance. If you are looking for smutty books this isn’t for you (I’ve talked to the author before and she always tells people this).
I love Fiona and Will they always will be my favorite couple out of this. I love Fiona’s job it suits her so well, being a wedding planner that is. I honestly think Fiona is my favorite to be honest. That’s how they meet, Will’s brother is getting married. Will honestly isn’t my favorite however. Can’t wait for the next book.
✨Will & Fiona✨ Book 4 in the series but can be read as a standalone, I recommend reading Book 1, Saying Yes, first! Beautifully written, the perfect amount of action and everything in between, no smut, but it’s not missed! 🖤 Absolutely recommend this book!
It's it's falling hard in a slowburn, the way to find love is one you will remember years after and need to re-read after some time. Are you ready for a sweet story with a rough path to get there?
