Jilted by Vi Keeland is an absolute gem! This book effortlessly combines humor, romance, and a dash of emotional depth, crafting a story that’ll leave you grinning from ear to ear.

Sloane’s journey is captivating, especially as she navigates the awkward aftermath of a breakup and her role in the wedding industry. You can’t help but empathize with her after her fiancé leaves her at the altar, but what truly elevates this book is the chemistry between Sloane and Wilder Hayes, one of the handsome yet exasperating groomsmen at a wedding her boss insists she attend. Their banter is sharp and playful, turning what could have been a frustrating encounter into an irresistibly fun meet-cute.

The tension between them builds even more when Wilder is revealed to be her boss’s son, forcing them to collaborate on a wedding project for months. Their dynamic is a delightful mix of passion and humor, making each interaction feel charged with energy. Watching these two fall in love is nothing short of enchanting. It’s a slow burn of trust, vulnerability, and connection, and you can’t help but root for them as they learn to let down their walls and trust the bond they’re forming.

What I loved most was how the author skillfully balances sweet moments with laugh-out-loud humor, while still allowing the characters to evolve. You’ll find yourself rooting for them at every turn, even as they face obstacles along the way. Jilted is the perfect rom-com escape - packed with heart, humor, and just the right amount of tension. By the time I turned the last page, I couldn’t help but feel so happy. It’s an absolute feel-good read!

This novel delivers a tender and emotional love story that lingers in your heart long after you’ve turned the last page. The characters are crafted with incredible depth, each carrying their own burdens, dreams, and vulnerabilities that make their journey toward love all the more compelling. Vi has done another outstanding job!

Now, he is trying everything to pursue her but she doesn’t trust love anymore. Can this playboy change her mind? This is a fun, slow burn romance with silly moments and some heartfelt ones too. There are a few chapters from Wilder’s past to paint a picture of the man he is today. Grab your bridal flowers, a cupcake and get ready to have a little wedding fun with a twist. Told in first person and dual POV.

This book was cute but very formulaic. I could predict everything that happened. If you want a tried and true romance with decent banter this one is for you.

I absolutely loved that there was major miscommunication in this story! They were real adults and managed to talk about their feelings and apologize when wires crossed. The tension is fantastic and I would have loved to keep reading.

This was a fun slow-burn read, I've never read anything by this author so I wasn't sure what to expect but this was a cute read. The fmc had been left at the alter and does not like weddings even though she is a wedding journalist. She meets the mmc when working at the wedding and they are instantly into each other but don't get together. The mmc, a famous rugby player, is known for not being in relationships and sleeping around and decides that he will not sleep around and wait for the fmc to be ready or agree to go on a date with him.

I enjoyed the wedding aspect and the fmc having to work these events where we meet different types of brides. She had instant chemistry with the mmc and I think it worked better with them not getting together instantly and getting to know the mmc despite all the not-great things the media said about him. The mmc despite being a player was so sweet and caring and that's what the fmc needed after her past relationship. There is also an accidental pregnancy towards the end of the book which was okay. There is a Diabetes rep with the fmc and the FMC's dad has Parkinson's. Overall a cute read, thanks to Bramble for the earc!
