Description
Weddings are big business in picturesque Sweetheart, California, and Something Borrowed’s rent-a-bridesmaid service is thriving among the Hollywood elite. For the women who work there, a walk down the aisle is just a paycheck—until the right guy makes it priceless . . .
RULE #1: GROOMSMEN ARE STRICTLY OFF LIMITS
Marley Stevenson never imagined her stint as a rented Maid of Honor would practically become a career. Then again, nothing in her life has gone according to plan. At least the money’s good—and she needs it to pay off student loans and help out her mom. But the job has rules, which have never been an issue . . . until one encounter with a gorgeous best man—and his swoon-worthy Southern accent—sends Marley reeling.
Determined to get through the weekend with her professional reputation intact, Marley grits her teeth and sends out her best “unavailable” vibes, but Luke Jessup doesn’t give up that easy. A former Marine and a current SWAT team officer, his focus is legendary—and it’s on Marley. Jeopardizing her job is bad enough, and starting a relationship based on half-truths is worse—yet Marley is beginning to wonder if certain risks are worth taking, especially in the name of true love . . .
“Flirty, fun, and fabulous!”
—Bestselling author Candis Terry
“Fun, lighthearted, and full of emotion. You can't help but smile while reading Cody Gary.”
—K.M. Jackson, author of Insert Groom Here
“Codi Gary is the queen of romance. She'll make you fall head over heels.”
—T.J. Kline, author of the Healing Harts series

Advance Praise
“Weddings are irresistible to many romance fans for good reason, and this new series will undoubtedly serve as catnip. Don’t Call Me Sweetheart is packed with laugh-out loud moments balanced by emotion that rings true. Marley’s job as a bridesmaid for rent has two ironclad rules: don’t tell the bride’s secrets, and don’t date the groomsmen. Her steadfastness will be put to the test as groomsman Luke is warm, funny, and emotionally available. The truly terrible bridal client keeps tensions high and conflict simmering, leading to an epic climax.”– RT Book Reviews, 4.5 Stars Top Pick
“Gary’s novel will delight romance lovers who appreciate a strong heroine going after what she wants.” - Publishers Weekly
