Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of When in Doubt, Add Butter and Shoe Addicts Anonymous comes a delightful new novel that will make readers look at love in a whole new way.
At twenty-one, Ashley Barton was on her way to the altar to marry Burke Morrison, her high school sweetheart, when something derailed her. Rather, someone derailed her—another man who at the last minute begged her to reconsider the marriage. He told her that Burke had been cheating on her. For a long time. And on top of that, he loved her more than Burke, and claimed he would treat her better than Burke ever could. Ashley, stunned, hurt, and confused, struggled with the obligation of fulfilling her guests’ expectations—providing a wedding—and running for her life.
She chose running. With the best man. Who happened to be Burke’s brother, Frank.
This relationship doesn’t work either. How could it, when Ashley had been engaged to, in love with, Frank’s brother? Ashley opts for neither, and, instead, spends the next seventeen years working in her family’s Middleburg, Virginia, bridal shop, Talk of the Gown, where she subconsciously does penance for the disservice she did to marriage.
But when the two men return to town for another wedding old anger, hurt, and passion resurface. Just because you’ve traded the good guy for the bad guy for no guy doesn’t mean you have to stay away from love for the rest of your life, does it?
