The perfect new love-triangle romance for fans of Elena Armas and Chloe Liese.

'I laughed, I cried. This book has it all: humour, romance, and a cracking story to boot' Reader review ★★★★★

Rule one of being a wedding planner, don’t fall for the bride.

Romance novelist Kalpana is about to marry the man of her dreams – or is she? The chaos of wedding planning is taking its toll on her relationship with the charming but self-absorbed Marcus, a prize-winning literary star.

Enter Sampath, the wedding planner skilled in uncovering what the soon-to-be-wed couple want out of their big day. Marcus wants a traditional wedding in Sri Lanka, but being the third generation of her family to be born in the UK, Kalpana doesn’t feel like those traditions are her own.

Forbidden feelings start to blossom, secrets are unravelled and identities are questioned. Living a love story that feels like it was written for someone else, Kalpana must take charge of her heart and rewrite her happily ever after before it’s written for her.

Perfect for fans of:

💗 Love triangles

💗 Second chances

💗 Unrequited love

💗 Diverse romance
