Klappentext "From the author of Somebody Like You, a RITA finalist, and one of Publishers Weekly's top ten books of 2014, comes the story of a woman who has everything for a perfect wedding except the groom! Winning an all-expenses paid Colorado destination wedding might seem like a dream come true for some people but Caron Hollister and her boyfriend Alex Madison aren't even engaged. How is she supposed to tell him she's won their wedding and honeymoon when he hasn't asked her to marry him? Being "perfect for one another" seems like the absolute best reason to get married. But what if their supposedly faultless relationship is merely a safe place to protect his secrets and a way to keep their families happy? After quitting her job, Caron accepts her best friend's offer to visit Colorado. She needs to catch her breath.

Of course, Caron had complicated the whole “prove herself” challenge by working for her father. She leaned back in the driver’s seat of her car, inhaling the faint citrus scent of Armor All lingering in her SUV. From the hubcaps to the dials of the CD player, the car gleamed.

At this moment, she sat in the perfect car for a Realtor to transport clients to see properties. Not that her father conducted weekly inspections of his employees’ cars. But he could inspect hers, if he wanted to. Caron unbuckled her seat belt with a sharp metallic click. Time to get to work. It was almost six o’clock in the morning. Showing...
