Charlotte was a wonderfully successful wedding photographer. She loves her career but marriage is not for her. Being left at the altar by her ex-fiancé has made her feel that way.

Dean Troyer was a very handsome man who was intrigued by the beautiful photographer, Charlotte. Quite a few of her weddings were held at Stag, a venue that Dean is part owner of. But, he is quite a bit older and has lots of baggage that makes him feel unworthy of her. But, Charlotte wants to get to know this handsome man better. Is it possible for these two people tthat set aside their hurts to trust love again?

I loved this story. My only criticism of this book were the occasional f-bombs and the descriptive sex scenes. I felt that the characters were well developed and their interactions and emotions were real and emotion filled. I lived Dean and his humble nature and his desire to do what is best for Charlotte, even at the risk of his heart.

I was given an arc copy of this book in exchange for an honest review,

If you like a story that'll draw you in from the first page, and keep you captivated until the end...filled with emotions and heart...then this story is a must read. This is the first time I've read anything by author, and am impressed with the depth of the characters, to the point were you're able to feel their heartbreak, despair, joy, frustrations, and desires. I'm glad that I took a chance on this book, it was well worth the time it took to read it.

This ARC book was complimentary, provided by the Publisher and NetGalley. I am voluntarily providing my honest review.

I really enjoyed the book. More than I thought I would and damn Nicole McLaughlin for making me care enough about these characters that the ending actually made me cry.

I enjoyed this book. There were a few twists and turns I did not see coming. A good way to spend the day in the pool.

I really enjoyed this book that has characters who have both seen some of the darkness that can enter relationships. The wedding business is rife with potential plot lines and while well represented here the book has a much deeper plot about relationships. I hope this will become a series and I am interested in the secondary characters.

Maybe I Do by Nicole McLaughlin is a sexy sweet contemporary read. I was addicted from the first page. Here, the writer has brought together two kind people. Each one has their own fears that they struggle with, as well as their attraction to each other. Dean is forty-one- years-old. He feels old. Yet he stays fit. Packing a six pack and not a single grey hair, he's every woman's fantasy. Including, Charlotte's. Dean was married once, and it didn't work. Plus, he's hiding a secret. Then, there's Charlotte who was almost married. Her fiancée didn't meet her at the aisle. Now, she works as a photographer photographing weddings mostly. Charlotte also holds a secret of her own.

Maybe I Do fits in perfectly. Each protagonist finally figures out that maybe they do want a happily forever...but will their fears stop them? Nicole McLaughlin created a beautiful yet emotional journey. I cried, laughed, and fell in love. Two older people falling deeper for one another. Their lust, attraction, and fears have a long way to go. It was easy to relate to the characters. Hopeful, funny, and well-developed. This book felt so real. Truly, a heartfelt romance. Overall, I recommend this to readers everywhere.

Is she also a wedding planner?

Ooh, this is some serious flirting going on.

I hope he is as old as she seems to think, otherwise it could be embarrassing.

And now I'm hungry again.

Heck, the juniors' section has better variety, anyway.

For someone whose marriage ended, you'd think it would be painful to work in what has basically become a wedding hall.

Easy, girl. You're both still working right now.

Tit for tat, buddy.

Damn, did she lose a baby? Dean and his wife had trouble getting pregnant, so they might have that in common.

Oh, I didn't know the photographers eat the wedding food too, but that makes sense.

I've had moonshine. It burns!

Yeesh! I'm sorry he got divorced, but it sounds like it was the right call. Amy is horrid.

I never got the shaved-chest look. Men don't look like that.

She lost her virginity to that prick?

I've heard Everclear packs a punch.

Stick it where the sun don't shine, Amy. You cheated, remember?

Oh, God. Poor Nate!

Never mix business with pleasure.

"Is it better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all?"

Interesting proposal.
