Publisher's summary

Rex “TW” McMurtry’s perpetual singlehood wouldn’t bother him so much if all his ex-girlfriends didn’t keep marrying the very next person they dated, especially when so many of those grooms are his closest friends. He may be a pro-football defensive end for the Chicago Squalls, but the press only wants to talk about how he’s always a groomsman and never a groom. Rex is sick of being the guy before the husband, and he’s most definitely sick of being the best man at all their weddings.

Bartender Abigail McNerny is the gal-pal, the wing-woman, the she-BFF. She’s dated. Once. And once was more than enough. Privy to all the sad stories of her customers, "contentment over commitment" is her motto, and Abby is convinced no one on earth could ever entice her into a romantic relationship...except that one guy she’s loved since preschool.

The guy who just walked into her bar.

The guy who doesn’t recognize her.

The guy who is drunk and needs a ride home.

The guy who has a proposition she should definitely refuse.

Good

I did love this book, but I have to say that I was disappointed, especially earlier in the book, that there was really not much interaction between the 2 that built up the love that they professed. Like, they’d only had a couple of conversations, gone to a couple of events (where he didn’t always speak to her), and a few text messages — and he professed love. They didn’t have very many more conversations before the end of the book, but I did get caught up in the sweetness and decided to forgive the lack of basis shown of their relationship by that time.

Wonderful@

I have thoroughly enjoyed every book of Penny Reid's I've read & this was no different.
I love her characters & the way she develops them.
Joy Nash is always a pleasure to listen to also.
Penny & Joy make a delightful duo.

Loved everything about this book!

I was hooked from the get-go! Loved the storyline and how pure it was (until it got to the end). Minimal use of profanity, which made me happy (though it did get a bit vulgar toward the end). Sweet story with generally relatable “worries” by the two main characters.

Pretty Good

The Narrator is EXCELLENT!!! She can do so many voices and also has great timing.
This was a long book and I felt it didn’t need to be this long. It had a LOT of filler, as I call it, and it had me Fast Forwarding a little bit too much.
It was a good story. Very sweet, easy listening and fun.
