Publisher's summary

Sparks ignite and tempers flare when a sexy, optimistic wedding planner moves his business in across the hall from a jilted divorce lawyer's practice.

From high school up until he became a successful attorney, Jacob Snowden was convinced that love had it out for him. "Everyone left" were the words he lived by. His mother, his high school sweetheart, his father, and his fiancé - they all left Jacob just when he felt it was safe to let down his guard.

Not any longer.

Jacob was a determined man, set at keeping people at a distance. If his six-foot-one, military-made body didn't scare people off, his permanent scowl surely did. At almost 40, Jacob's social life was nonexistent, but he told himself his work fulfilled him. He helped people get out of their loveless marriages.

Jacob Snowden was one of the best divorce lawyers on the East Coast and was damn proud of it. So, imagine his disdain when a wedding planner moves into the suite directly adjacent to his...an insanely masculine, male wedding planner.

Contains mature themes.

Good slow HEA

The beginning chapters did have me intrigued but unsure feeling at first. (agreed cringe on the narration in that one chapter). But I soon was invested with hope on how the HEA of these two characters would manifest. A romcom/made for TV feel that you sometimes just need. I'd like to know how they are now. Enjoyed. Worth the read*listen.

Fantastic listen!

Broody and a loner, Jacob has created his own monster. He was burned before and refuses to let himself feel. Top it off with being the best divorce attorney in the state, and he finds himself jaded when it comes to relationships. Wild has move his wedding planning boutique into the same building across of Jacob's office. And when these two first meet, there is no way anything would ever develop between them. Until Wild sees Jacob. Really sees the man. This is a beautiful love story of hurt, deceit, and hopelessness that has the chance to be turned to love, trust and a bright future. I absolutely love the story line, the characters and the reasons for the scowl. A E Via brings out the emotional turmoil of young love and how it shapes our lives. This story is realistic and compassionate. Wild is unpredictable and funny, protective and loving, the total opposite of Jacob and it makes the story show just how love is found in the most unlikely places.

Tor Thom voices this one from his heart. Both characters are emotionally charged and he pulls out the feelings for each. He creates each one with a voice that fits the character, from the broody Jacob to the creative Wild. It's heartfelt and sensitive, brought to life in a fantastic performance.

Loved Jacob & Wilde

This story was not just a good Romance to enjoy
This was a good message to enjoy
The author really developed the story line and characters
The story provided a message that love concurs all, that forgiveness enhances your life so positively, that kindness gets you further than anger
Jacob made a full transformation when he began dating Wilde and his influence to forgive and respect others
The story Also had hot hot hot interactions but she allowed the reader to get to know the characters before this happened
So well worth the read !

Compelling

Strong character development between Jacob and Wilde. The beginning with Jacob’s life was strong which made the book flow well into the other chapters. Wilde’s character was so well rounded and works perfectly. Wilde’s family was a great addition and they also brought comedic relief. So many great moments in this book. The narrator was also excellent and brought variety. I definitely recommend this.

Captivating story

The book takes you along with the story. The narration is skilfully done and it felt like I could see the characters, visualise the world created around the story and experience the feelings that the characters felt. A beautiful story about seeing beyond what’s on face value.
