Make-Believe Wedding

This is my first read by Ms. Holt and it was a wonderful treat.

The characters were relateable, the pacing on target, and the emotions well represented. Ms. Holt is a strong writer on all fronts. I enjoyed all the traps the heroine and hero got themselves into and had to figure their way out of.

A charming, clean, quick, heartfelt read.

Molly Beluga was abandoned at the altar and has no intention of heading back there anytime soon. When she crosses paths with an arrogant fireman, she knows better than to let her heart get involved. She can’t face the idea of having it broken by another failed relationship. A serious journalist working for her family’s newspaper, her only plan is to focus on her career and to train her new Labrador puppy, Daisy, to behave.

Tim Holden left the family newspaper to become a fireman with the Atlanta Fire Department. After a lifetime of watching the newspaper business consume his family, he has no time for journalists, let alone a beautiful and feisty journalist with no regard for anything other than getting the story. Now thirty, he’s grown tired of bouncing between short-term relationships so when an idea emerges for a fake relationship, he’s intrigued. 

Will these enemies sheath their swords long enough to formulate a plan that just might bring their warring families back together? 

A modern retelling of the classic tale, Romeo and Juliet, without all the gore. Okay, maybe just a little bit of gore. This book is a laugh-out-loud romantic comedy that proves once again true love can overcome even the most bitter feud, and conquer the hardest of hearts.
