Wedding planner Honor Bellini is in Las Vegas for a work convention when she runs into her sister's ex-fianc�, Owen Stone, who's also in town for his craft brewery business. They're both glad to see a familiar face from home...until a night of drinking leads to waking up in bed together--and a marriage certificate from a wedding that neither of them can recall.

My Thoughts

 The Accidental Newlywed Game, is a totally enchanting story of two star-crossed lovers. Whose stars just happen to align in a most unexpected way.  After a tequila inspired trip down the wedding isle.  And so much more.  After what amounts to a chance meeting in Vegas.

The problem...

To say that these two have a history would be the understatement of the millennium!
Not  only did they grow up as best friends.
Owen was once the love of her older sister Erin's life.
Check the past tense there.
Can we say hard feelings, disappointment, and regret.

But...
As Honor and Owen's predicament does more to bring them together than to drive them apart.
They must come to terms with the fact that the undeniable chemistry that they feel for each other has the potential to be so much more.
If that is, they are brave enough to bring their relationship out of the shadows and into the light.

This is a beautifully written, emotionally compelling, romantic underdog story. That will have readers turning pages with crossed fingers and full hearts.  As we witness the coming together of not just the lives and hearts of Honor and her leading man.  But the healing of a family in the process.

Another aspect of this read to love is the fact that Owen is a Cancer survivor.  Seeing Honor be there for him.  Even though it was quite clear that the whole ordeal unnerves her.  Really is enough to let you know that even though she may not be ready to admit it.  She is a woman in it for the long hual with this man.
And this, as it turns out. 
Is just one example of many where the proof of love is more than evident in both puddings.
But I digress.
This is a wonderful one-sitting read that once you start, you won't stop reading until the end.
 May I say that this reviewer is chomping at the bit for more!
Next book please ma'am?
